Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of 26 Glebelands Road, with regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The existing use as a C4 HMO with no demonstrated problems, combined with the physical separation and forward positioning of the appeal site relative to the neighbouring property, meant the modest intensification would not have a meaningful effect on noise or disturbance levels.
