Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties at 65 and 69 Oakleigh Park North
What decided it
The reduced projection of the rear extension compared to the previous scheme, combined with the proposed screening measures and the existing potential for overlooking from current first floor windows, meant the proposal would not cause unacceptable harm to neighbouring living conditions or the character of the area.
