Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of future occupants of the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to outlook, privacy and provision of outdoor amenity space
- the effect of the proposed boundary treatment on the living conditions of occupants of 25 Bonsor Road, with particular regard to outlook and light to their private amenity space
- whether the proposal would provide adequate provision for parking
What decided it
The proposal would make effective use of a previously developed, underutilised backland site with a high-quality design that would not harm the character and appearance of the area or the living conditions of future or neighbouring occupants.
