Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- The living conditions of occupants of neighbouring properties by way of privacy, noise and disturbance; pressure on on-street parking; rear garden area available to the occupants of 66 Grasmere Avenue; and an overbearing nature
- The living conditions of the occupants of the dwelling by reason of its size and provision of storage facilities
What decided it
The erection of a dwelling in the rear garden causes significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through subdivision of the garden contrary to established layout, and causes material harm to neighbours' living conditions through loss of privacy, noise and disturbance, and increased parking pressure.
