Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to privacy
- whether adequate living conditions would be provided for future occupiers with regard to provision of private outdoor amenity space and sunlight
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, neighbouring privacy, and future occupier amenity significantly and demonstrably outweighs the benefit of delivering one dwelling in a context of housing undersupply.
The significant weight given to housing delivery in a context of undersupply was outweighed by the significantly and demonstrably greater harm to character and appearance, neighbouring privacy, and future occupier living conditions.
