Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and area
- the living conditions of occupants of 44 Otley Old Road and 48 Otley Old Road with regard to privacy, sunlight and outlook
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the extensions, particularly the front dormer and two-storey additions, would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, and would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of outlook and daylight.
