Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for the occupiers of the property with regards to outdoor space
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of No 50 Roslyn Street with regards to outlook, and No 46 Roslyn Street with regards to outlook and the provision of natural light
What decided it
The proposed extension would retain sufficient outdoor space for the appeal property and would not materially worsen the living conditions of neighbouring properties regarding outlook and natural light, as the existing built form already constrains these aspects.
