Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to privacy and overlooking

What decided it

The roof overhang and staggered positioning of the appeal property would sufficiently restrict views from the proposed balcony and revised fenestration to prevent unacceptable overlooking or loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers.
