Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the Kensington Conservation Area
- The effect of the first-floor terrace on the living conditions of nearby residential occupiers with particular regard to overlooking, noise and disturbance
What decided it
The first-floor terrace would allow direct and close overlooking into the rear living accommodation and bedroom of the neighbouring property at 77 Hillgate Place, significantly harming the privacy of its occupiers in breach of Policy CL5.
