Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the existing occupiers of No 27 and the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to privacy
- the effect of the proposal on parking provision, including electric vehicle charging
What decided it
The proposed development would be harmful to the character and appearance of the area by introducing an independent single-storey detached dwelling that would be discordant with the prevailing pattern of two-storey terraced properties, and would fail to provide satisfactory living conditions for future occupiers due to overlooking from the adjacent property.
