Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the borough's stock of family housing
  • whether the two self-contained flats created provide for a satisfactory standard of accommodation for all future occupiers

What decided it

The development fails to provide a satisfactory standard of accommodation for the upper floor family-sized flat due to lack of access to the rear garden as required by LP Policy D6, and fails to comply with the Epping Forest SAMMS mitigation requirements applicable at the time of decision.

the adverse impacts of the unauthorised development significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits, with no compelling information to support the breach of planning control
