Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding residential area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of adjoining occupiers
What decided it
The substantial scale of the proposed extensions, particularly the side extension filling much of the plot width and the rear dormer creating direct overlooking, would harm both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of adjoining occupiers, conflicting with development plan policies.
