Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties at 194 and 190 Strathmore Avenue with regard to outlook and light
- whether the development would provide satisfactory living conditions for its future occupiers with respect to internal living space and outdoor amenity space
- the effect on the character of the area
What decided it
The proposed extension would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing and enclosing effects, and the conversion would result in substandard cramped living conditions for future occupants with inadequate internal and external space.
