Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the existing house and surrounding area

What decided it

The proposed bungalow would not harm the character and appearance of the existing house or surrounding area due to its subordinate roofline, matching materials, retained gap to the neighbouring property, and preservation of openness at the corner plot.
