Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the size and use of the extension affects the character of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers

What decided it

The existence of a legitimate fall-back position under permitted development rights, combined with the extension's rear location, compliant height, and distance from neighbouring properties, meant the development would not harmfully affect character or residential amenity.
