Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for existing neighbouring and future occupants, with particular regard to daylight, sunlight and privacy

What decided it

The proposed development would maintain the spacious quality of the area through adequate setbacks, parking and garden space, avoid harmful overbearing effects through generous gaps between buildings, and provide acceptable living conditions through alternative bedrooms and privacy screening measures.

Framework references: 130, 134
