Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and area, having regard to whether or not the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Gunter Estate Conservation Area
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupants of No 16, having regard to the use of the proposed terrace and steps with privacy screen located at ground floor level
What decided it
The front glass infill extension would unduly erode the visual separation between the two distinct terraces and harm the Conservation Area's character, and the proposed roof terrace would cause unacceptable harm to neighbouring living conditions through overbearing enclosure and noise disturbance.
