Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to internal space
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for existing occupiers of neighbouring properties on Elmgrove Road and Glenwood Close, with particular regard to privacy
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the appeal property and area
What decided it
The proposed development would provide unacceptable living conditions for future occupants due to substantial shortfalls in internal floor area and for existing neighbouring occupiers due to unacceptable loss of privacy from the proposed balcony.
