Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would accord with the provisions of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class AA of the GPDO, with particular regard to the external appearance of the dwellinghouse
What decided it
The combination of the proposal's matching materials, reflected architectural features, limited visibility from public vantage points due to setback and mature vegetation screening, and the variety of built forms along Sturts Lane ensures the addition would not unacceptably detract from external appearance.
