Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to its siting, scale, and the loss of soft landscaping
- The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions for the occupiers of No. 10 Triangle Drive and No. 2 Plantation Drive (the host property), with particular regard to the size of the retained private outdoor space, privacy and outlook
- Whether there would be satisfactory living conditions for the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with particular regard to the private outdoor space provision and privacy
What decided it
The proposed dwelling's siting, scale, and terraced form would be wholly at odds with the established semi-detached, spacious character of the area and would harmfully affect the privacy and outlook of neighbouring occupiers.
