Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the dwellings provide acceptable living conditions for their occupants, with particular regard to the provision of internal and external living space

What decided it

The dwellings do not provide acceptable living conditions due to significant internal and external space deficiencies, particularly for Flat 2, and the development fails to meet the conversion criteria in Local Plan Policy 10b.

Plan policies cited: London Plan Policy D6, Sutton Local Plan Policy 9, Sutton Local Plan Policy 10b, Sutton Local Plan Policy 37, London Plan Policy H1
