Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the neighbouring occupants of 2 The Chase with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The harm to character and appearance caused by the bulky rear extension with flat roof and extensive glazing, combined with unacceptable loss of privacy to neighbouring occupants through the proposed roof terrace, outweighs any neutral or acceptable elements of the scheme.
