Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed front extension and single storey rear extensions on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
The effect of the proposed single storey rear extensions on the living conditions of occupiers of Nos 57 and 61 Bulwer Road with respect to outlook

What decided it

The proposed extensions, despite exceeding the SPD depth guidance, would integrate sympathetically with the existing single storey rear extension and maintain acceptable character, appearance and living conditions for neighbours due to their modest scale, low eaves height and subservient design.
