Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of the host dwelling and neighbouring properties with regard to privacy, noise, odour and disturbance
- Car parking and highway safety
What decided it
The annex would remain ancillary to the main dwelling under the same ownership, allowing the occupiers to control visitor stays and manage the shared space, and the limited size and facilities would not generate unacceptable impacts on living conditions or highway safety.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DC6ENV8INF1
