Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The adverse impacts on the character and appearance of the area, which would be visually dominant and discordant with the discrete cul-de-sac setting, would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of one additional dwelling to housing supply.
The significant harm to character and appearance, given weight consistent with NPPF paragraph 130 on well-designed places, outweighed the modest benefits of one additional dwelling to housing supply and the local economy, such that the tilted balance did not indicate a decision contrary to the development plan.
