Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of the proposed dwelling with regard to daylight and outlook
What decided it
The poor outlook from the main living space of the proposed dwelling, resulting from the basement-level garden being set low and enclosed, conflicts with development plan policies requiring quality housing standards with high amenity and cannot be outweighed by other material considerations.

- Policy D3 of The London Plan 2021Policy SP11 of Haringey's Local Plan Strategic Policies 2013-2026Policy DM1 of Haringey Development Management DPD 2017Policy DM7 of Haringey Development Management DPD 2017Policy D6 of The London Plan
