Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effects of the proposal on the living conditions of occupiers at No 72 Aylestone Avenue, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
- the effects of the proposal on existing trees
What decided it
The modest amendments reducing the depth and height of rearward projections, combined with conditions protecting neighbouring amenity and the retained protected tree, tipped the balance in favour of the scheme as an acceptable standard of design that would not materially harm living conditions.
