Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the first floor side extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and streetscene
What decided it
The proposed first floor side extension would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider streetscene, conflicting with PfE Policy JP-P1 and NPPF paragraph 135, and this harm was not outweighed by the appellant's personal circumstances.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- PfE Policy JP-P1SPD4: A Guide for Designing House Extensions & Alterations (2012)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 135
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
