Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposed extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of 31 Elmfield Road with respect to visual impact, outlook and light

What decided it

The proposed extension would materially detract from the character and appearance of the host dwelling and materially harm the living conditions of neighbours through visual intrusion and loss of outlook, conflicting with development plan policies and the NPPF.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policy HC1 of the London Plan (2021), Policy D6 of the London Plan, Policy CS5 of the Barnet Core Strategy (2012), Policy DM01 of the Barnet Development Management Policies DPD (2012), Policy DM02 of the Barnet Development Management Policies DPD
