Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed balcony on the living conditions of the occupiers of the nearest neighbouring properties at Troutbeck Crescent to the rear of the appeal site, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The significant distance of 28m between the proposed balcony and the nearest neighbour's first floor windows, combined with screening from the boundary fence, ground level differences, and vegetation, ensures that privacy impacts would be acceptable and no undue harm to living conditions would result.
