Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring houses, with respect to daylight and sunlight, outlook, privacy, private outdoor space, noise and disturbance
- whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants, with respect to daylight and sunlight, outlook, private outdoor space, and privacy
- the effect of the proposal on the biodiversity of the appeal site, with particular regard to badgers
What decided it
The proposed new dwelling would unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area through its tandem development pattern and incongruous materials, and would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through overlooking, privacy loss, and noise and disturbance.
