Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
What decided it
The modest scale, sympathetic design, and setback positioning of the first-floor extension, combined with the isolated visibility of the rear elevation and the fallback position of the previously approved scheme, mean the proposal would not be visually intrusive and would accord with development plan policies on character and design quality.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SP1Policy CS22Policy SADM30
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
