Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of varying the conditions on the character and appearance of the area, including the setting of Kent Town Conservation Area
  • the effect of varying the conditions on the living conditions of neighbouring properties with particular regard to outlook, light, privacy and noise

What decided it

The minimal physical differences between the approved and proposed schemes, combined with the subterranean nature of the basement extension and the discrete siting of new elements, meant that the variations to conditions would not result in unacceptable effects on character, appearance or neighbouring amenity.
