Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring dwellings, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The significant harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of privacy, which could not be outweighed by the limited housing and economic benefits of the two-dwelling scheme.
the adverse effects of granting permission, particularly the significant harm to neighbouring living conditions, would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of housing supply contribution and social and economic benefits when assessed against the policies of the Framework as a whole
