Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area in relation to its size, siting and design
- the adequacy of the proposed forecourt parking arrangements
- the sustainability of the proposal in relation to maximising carbon reductions
What decided it
The detrimental effect on the character and appearance of the area arising from the dominant and overbearing 3-storey massing with gable end and rear dormer, which would depart from the predominant hipped roof form and compromise the open character of this prominent corner property.
The benefit of one additional home in a sustainable location would not outweigh the harm arising to the character and appearance of the area.
