Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The adequacy of the access arrangements
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and on a conservation area
- The suitability of the proposed unit mix
- The adequacy of living conditions for future occupiers in relation to unit size, light, outlook and amenity space provision
- The impact on living conditions of occupiers of adjacent dwellings
- The implications of the proposal for car parking, cycle storage and refuse and recycling storage
What decided it
The negative impact on the significance of the Streatham High Road and Streatham Hill Conservation Area through the proposed roof additions, combined with multiple breaches of development plan policies on access, housing mix, living conditions, and transport infrastructure, which could not be adequately addressed through planning conditions.
