Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 39a and 39b Marylebone Crescent with particular regard to privacy, outlook and loss of light
- the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the privacy and outlook of neighbouring occupiers at 39a and 39b Marylebone Crescent significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of providing one additional dwelling in a context of housing land supply shortfall.
The significant harm to neighbouring living conditions with respect to privacy and outlook, given substantial weight and consistency with Framework policies promoting health and well-being, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing supply contribution, economic activity, and sustainable location, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
