Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal would provide an acceptable standard of accommodation for future occupiers with particular regard to amenity space provision
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residents at 42 St Marks Road with particular regard to the potential to appear overbearing
- the extent to which the basement aspect of the proposal accords with development plan policies
What decided it
The proposal would fail to harmonise with its surroundings and detract from the character and appearance of the area, would not provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers due to inadequate amenity space, and would harm the living conditions of neighbouring residents through an overbearing effect.
