Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the future occupiers of Flat B, with particular regard to floor to ceiling height
What decided it
The loft bedroom in Flat B, despite having a ceiling height marginally below policy requirements, provides excellent living conditions in practice through generous size, dual aspect windows providing significant light and ventilation, and a spacious feel that outweighs the limited policy conflict.
Plan policies cited: Policy D6 of The London Plan (March 2021), Policy D3 of The London Plan (March 2021), Policy CS5 of the Barnet Local Plan Core Strategy DPD (September 2012), Policy DM01 of the Barnet Local Plan Development Management Policies DPD (September 2012), Policy DM02 of the Barnet Local Plan Development Management Policies DPD (September 2012)
