Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of the host dwelling, No 125 Park Avenue, with respect to the provision of outdoor space

What decided it

The development would harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area by introducing a single storey detached dwelling that would be at odds with the linear pattern of street-facing dwellings and the spacious character of the area, conflicting with policy SD.10.
