Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
- the living conditions of occupiers of Nos. 176 and 180 East Barnet Road with regard to outlook and light
- the living conditions of future occupiers of the proposal with regard to light, amenity space provision and ceiling heights
- parking and highway safety
What decided it
The significant adverse harm to character and appearance, combined with harm to neighbouring living conditions and inadequate provision for future occupiers' amenity space, outweighed the moderate benefits of additional housing supply.
