Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with specific regard to effects relating to overbearing, outlook, daylight and sunlight on the rear-facing window to the outrigger of No 24 Thorpe Road

What decided it

The neighbouring window would retain an acceptable level of outlook, daylight and sunlight despite the extension, as the window is well-separated from the boundary and the extension would be of modest depth and not appear dominant or overbearing.
