Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring dwellings with particular regard to privacy, light and outlook
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building, terrace and area
What decided it
The rear extension would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of outlook and potentially harmful loss of light to lower-ground floor windows of 13 Eustace Road, which could not be justified by the appellant's personal circumstances.
