Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the appeal scheme complies with the provisions of policy DM40 of the Local Plan, with particular regards to marketing
  • The effect of the appeal scheme on the living conditions of the occupiers of the 23 Lynton Road with particular regards to privacy
  • Whether or not the appeal scheme would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with particular regards to outlook, daylight and outside space

What decided it

The failure to comply with Policy DM40's marketing requirement, combined with the inadequate living conditions for future occupiers regarding outlook, daylight and outside space, meant the proposal could not be approved.

The material benefits of bringing an empty property back into use and providing additional residential accommodation in excess of minimum space standards were outweighed by the harm identified in relation to marketing compliance and future occupier living conditions.
