Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the standard of residential accommodation for future occupiers with respect to aspect, amenity space and the size of the internal floor area
- the level of parking and the effect on highway safety
- the effect of the extension on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the extension on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupants at 710 Greenford Road with regard to light and outlook
What decided it
The unsatisfactory standard of residential accommodation for future occupiers, particularly the single-aspect nature of two flats and poor quality of amenity space, combined with the highway safety risk from the inadequate parking crossover, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan and material considerations did not indicate it should be decided otherwise.
