Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal property and area
- The living conditions of future occupiers of the proposed flat, and the living conditions of the occupiers of 254 and 258 Chingford Mount Road, with particular regard to external amenity space, outlook, daylight, sunlight, and refuse facilities
- Sustainable travel, with particular regard to cycle storage
What decided it
The proposal's failure to provide adequate external amenity space and poor outlook for future occupiers, combined with significant harm to the character and appearance of the property and area, and adverse impacts on daylight and sunlight to neighbouring properties, outweighed the modest housing supply benefit.
