Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to outlook
- the effect of the proposed development on the availability of on-street car parking
What decided it
The significantly restricted and overbearing outlook from the lower ground floor bedrooms would substantially harm the living conditions of future occupiers, conflicting with Policy DM35 and the Residential Design Guidance, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh this conflict.
Plan policies cited: Policy DM35, Policy DM33, Wycombe District Local Plan 2019, Residential Design Guidance 2017
