Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the first floor extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
  • the effect of the first floor extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of 8 Greenhills, with particular regard to outlook, light and privacy

What decided it

The first floor extension would achieve appropriate subordination to the host dwelling through its setback position, lower roof ridge and matching materials, and would not cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of the neighbouring property when the site topography, separation distances and proposed obscure glazing condition are taken into account.
