Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character or appearance of the dwelling; the semi-detached pair, and the Aldersbrook and Lake House Estate Conservation Area with particular reference to the hip to gable extension; the loss of a chimney stack, and the addition of the rear dormer
What decided it
The existing context of the locality, including the prevalence of gable roofs in Blake Hall Crescent and the prior alteration to the adjacent semi-detached property, meant that the hip to gable extension would have a neutral effect on the conservation area, and any less than substantial harm from the rear dormer would be outweighed by the public benefit of improved housing.
