Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants with regard to the internal space and configuration of the flats, and privacy for flat 3
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and the area
What decided it
Flat 1 would fall significantly short of the minimum internal space standard of 50 sq.m and would not provide a comfortable, functional layout fit for purpose, conflicting with Policy D6 of the London Plan and Policies DM1 and DM26 of the HCDMP.
