Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposal would have safe and convenient access
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the existing occupiers of the flats at 8 Eileen Avenue with regard to amenity space
- whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers with regard to amenity space
- whether the proposal would make adequate provision for affordable housing
What decided it
The significant and demonstrable harm to character and appearance, living conditions of existing occupiers, and safe pedestrian access outweighed the moderate benefits of one additional dwelling when assessed against Framework policies taken as a whole.
