Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would provide acceptable living conditions for the future occupiers of the dwelling with regard to outlook, floor-to-ceiling heights, and privacy.

What decided it

The poor outlook resulting from the basement location, which would create an unacceptable standard of accommodation that clearly outweighed any positive considerations.
