Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the availability of smaller family housing in the Borough
  • The effect of the development on the character of the surroundings with particular regard to its impact on current and future local residents

What decided it

The property falls below the 120sqm gross original internal floorspace threshold required by Policy DM17 for HMO conversion, and the development would adversely affect the availability of smaller family housing units in an area already experiencing high HMO concentration and associated amenity impacts.

Framework references: 62

Plan policies cited: Policy DM17, Policy DM1, Policy SP2, Policy SP11, Policy H9 London Plan 2021
