Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the use of the property as a House in Multiple Occupancy (HMO) has resulted in the loss of a family dwelling
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties with regard to parking, noise and disturbance, outlook, and light
- Whether the accommodation provided is of an appropriate standard
- The effect of the development on the character of the area
- The effect of the development on flood risk
What decided it
The development results in the loss of a family-sized dwelling and fails to comply with multiple local plan policies protecting family housing, while causing significant adverse effects on neighbouring amenity and character that cannot be justified.
Plan policies cited: Policy BH11, Policy BH7, Policy DMP1, Policy BT2, Policy BD1, Policy BH10, Policy BH13, Policy BSU13, Policy BSU14
