Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: whether the conversion of the property into 4 flats had been in continuous residential use for at least 4 years prior to 14 June 2023
- Appeal B: the effect of the single storey rear extension on the living conditions of existing and future occupiers having regard to daylight, outlook and privacy
What decided it
The appellant's consistent and precise documentary evidence (tenancy agreements, bank statements, utility bills, council tax records) corroborated by the Inspector's site observations demonstrating continuous residential occupation of 4 self-contained flats from on or before 14 June 2019, combined with the absence of any contradictory evidence from the Council.
