Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the property
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the neighbouring and surrounding occupiers and the balanced and mixed community
What decided it
The proposed external staircase would harm both the character and appearance of the property and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overlooking and loss of privacy, and this harm could not be overcome by the absence of harm from the increase in bedrooms.
