Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development would result in the loss of a family sized home
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to internal space and external private amenity space
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 73 Geary Road, with particular regard to light and outlook
What decided it
The proposed development conflicts with the development plan on multiple grounds—character and appearance, loss of family housing, and living conditions for both future and neighbouring occupiers—with no material considerations to outweigh these conflicts.
