Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether acceptable living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed new flat would be provided
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the existing occupiers of the first floor flats at Nos 99 and 101 Turnpike Lane, with regard to outlook and daylight

What decided it

The proposed studio flat would provide inadequate and unfit living conditions for future occupiers due to its cramped layout, disjointed shower room location, and failure to meet London Plan Policy D6 space and ceiling height standards.

Plan policies cited: Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy D4 of the London Plan, Policy DM1 of the Haringey Development Management DPD (2017), Policy DM12 of the Haringey Development Management DPD
