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 two-storey rear extension on the living conditions of occupiers of 4 Burnside Close with particular regard to outlook
- the effect of the proposed two-storey rear extension on the living conditions of occupiers of the appeal dwelling with particular regard to external amenity space
What decided it
The proposed development would have a harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area due to the incongruous design, materials and prominence of the extensions, particularly the first floor front extension with its light rendered finish and gable canopy in a street characterised by consistency and order.
