Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The varied character of the surrounding area, with detached dwellings of different designs and scales, and the presence of other substantially extended properties with contemporary elements, meant that the proposed extensions would not cause harm to the character and appearance of the area despite not being subservient to the original dwelling.

Plan policies cited: Policy HDG1 of Householder Design Guide Leeds City Council's Local Development Framework Supplementary Planning Document (April 2012), Policy P10 of Leeds City Council's Core Strategy (as amended by the Core Strategy Selective Review 2019), saved policies GP5 and BD6 of Leeds Unitary Development Plan (Review 2006)
