Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would safeguard the living conditions of the occupiers of the adjacent property at No 139 Southfield Road in terms of outlook
- whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers, with specific regard to internal communal space and external amenity space
- whether the proposed development would have an acceptable effect on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposed two-storey rear extension would significantly reduce the outlook from the neighbouring property's rear windows, adversely affecting the living conditions of its occupiers in conflict with Policy DC1 of the development plan.
