Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants with specific regard to amenity space provision
What decided it
The removal of unsightly existing outbuildings and the dwelling's siting within an area of varied building types meant that the contemporary design would not cause harm to character and appearance, and the reduced amenity space was acceptable for a one-bedroom property likely to be occupied by a single person.
