Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the annexe is ancillary to the main dwelling or a separate independent dwelling unit
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers and the occupiers of neighbouring properties, including The Headland, with particular regard to privacy
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
What decided it
The ancillary nature of the proposed use, which could be secured by condition, meant the development would not constitute a new dwelling and would accord with the development plan.
