Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character appearance of the host property and the surrounding area and upon the living conditions of occupants of 5 Grove Road

What decided it

The site-specific circumstances, including the shallow roof design, reduced boundary height compared to the existing extension, and the material fallback position of a permitted six-metre extension, justified allowing the proposal despite exceeding supplementary planning guidance.

The benefits of the carefully designed extension and improved outlook to No. 5 outweighed the departure from supplementary planning guidance on extension depth, particularly given the material fallback position.
