Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
- the living conditions of the occupants of No 312 Marlow Bottom Road, with particular regard to privacy, overshadowing and outlook
What decided it
The development's limited visibility in the wider context and its fundamental consistency with the original tiered garden character, combined with adequate separation distances and intervening features preventing harmful overlooking, meant the proposals did not adversely affect character, appearance or neighbouring living conditions.
