Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed development upon the living conditions of occupiers of 22 Highfield Way, with particular regard to daylight and sunlight and outlook
  • The character and appearance of the appeal property and the surrounding area

What decided it

The two-storey side and rear extension would cause material harm to the living conditions of occupiers of the neighbouring property through unacceptable restriction of outlook and reduction of daylight and sunlight, contrary to SNLP Policies SS2 and SDP1.

Plan policies cited: SNLP Policy SS2, SNLP Policy SDP1, South Northamptonshire Design Guide Chapter 4 – Residential
