Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the development on the character and appearance of the building and the North Tottenham Conservation Area, with regard to the first-floor roof terrace and second floor balcony
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the development, with particular regard to layout, outlook, and amenity space
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the North Tottenham Conservation Area and locally listed building caused by the proposed roof terrace enclosure and balcony, which was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
The less than substantial harm to the North Tottenham Conservation Area and locally listed building was weighed against the public benefits of one additional single-bedroom residential unit and potential commercial attractiveness; the harm outweighed the benefits, and the heritage harm provided a clear reason for refusal under paragraph 11(d)(i) of the Framework notwithstanding the Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply.
