What decided it
The garden room's location at the bottom of the garden at substantial distance from the main dwelling, combined with its appropriate size, scale, and revised materials, would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area, whereas the dormer, roof extensions, and single-storey extension would cause less than substantial harm that could not be outweighed by private residential benefits.
