Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the use of the appeal property as a large HMO on the living conditions of occupiers of adjoining residential property, having particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the use of the appeal property as a large HMO on highway safety, having particular regard to the availability of car parking
- whether suitable living conditions have been provided for current and future occupiers of the property
What decided it
The proposal would result in a materially more intensive use of the property generating significantly increased noise and disturbance to both neighbouring occupiers and future occupants, contrary to development plan policies requiring high standards of amenity.
