Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the design, scale and appearance of the existing terrace that includes the host dwelling, and on the character and appearance of the streetscene
- The adequacy of the proposed private rear garden area to provide adequate amenity for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling, in terms of scale and layout
What decided it
The proposed dwelling's narrow frontage and vertical emphasis would disrupt the established rhythm and scale of the terrace and eliminate the open corner aspect, constituting poor design contrary to policy, and the rear garden area would fail to provide adequate outdoor amenity for future occupiers.
