Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether there has been a material change of use of the property by subdividing the property to create 3 self-contained units of accommodation
What decided it
The ground floor and remainder of the first floor do not form a self-contained unit of accommodation as they share communal hallways with the other units and therefore lack the facilities required for day-to-day private domestic existence as a separate planning unit.
