Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the extension is detrimental to the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area, contrary to the relevant provisions of the development plan
  • Whether the extension results in an unacceptable loss of outlook and sense of enclosure to the occupiers of no. 7 Marlborough Avenue and an enhanced perspective into the rear garden of no. 3 Marlborough Avenue

What decided it

The extension as constructed is significantly larger and more harmful than either of the two previously permitted schemes, causing unacceptable harm to character and appearance and to neighbouring outlook that cannot be justified by material considerations.

Plan policies cited: CS1, CS5, DM01, D3 of the London Plan
