Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect that removing the condition would have on the living conditions of the occupiers of 52 Lime Avenue, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The balcony's position set in from the eastern boundary, combined with the width of the host garden and mature border planting, means the extent of overlooking would not be so great as to restrict reasonable use of the neighbouring garden or have a significant adverse effect on privacy.
