Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and area
the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 7 and 11 Kewferry Drive with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The revised design of the extension, with reduced depth and crown roof size compared to the earlier dismissed appeal, combined with the obscured glazing conditions preventing overlooking, overcame the previous grounds for refusal and satisfied both character and living conditions concerns.
