Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the rear extension on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring properties with regard to outlook, light, and whether it would be overbearing
- the effect of front and rear extensions on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
What decided it
The rear extension unacceptably affects the outlook and creates an overbearing effect on the neighbouring property at 29 Locker Avenue, and the side extension is disproportionately large and harms the character and appearance of the host property and street view.
