Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of No 1 Kites Nest and the pair of dwellings it forms with its attached neighbour to the west, No 2 Kites Nest Cottage
- the relationship of the proposed annex to the main dwelling
- the safety of the arrangements for vehicle access, egress and parking at the appeal property, once extended as proposed
What decided it
The proposed development represents high-quality design compliant with development plan policies, the annex would function as ancillary accommodation integrated with the main dwelling, and removal of the boundary wall would be neutral or beneficial to highway safety.
