Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the existing and future occupiers of the host property and whether acceptable living conditions for future occupiers would be provided
  • whether the proposal would provide appropriate levels of off-street parking to meet the needs of the existing dwelling

What decided it

The cumulative harm to character and appearance, living conditions of the host dwelling's occupiers, and inadequate parking provision could not be outweighed by the moderate weight given to the appellants' personal circumstances.

The benefits to the appellants' personal circumstances (moderate weight) were outweighed by the harm to character and appearance, living conditions of the host dwelling's occupiers, and inadequate parking levels.
