Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the original dwelling and the wider area
- The living conditions of nearby residents, having particular regard to outlook and visual amenity
What decided it
The developments, despite breaching planning control, do not result in harm to character and appearance or living conditions that would justify enforcement action, particularly given the fallback position of permitted roof extensions and the acceptable visual impact of the side extension from the public realm.
