9 Hollies Way, Temperley Road, Wandsworth, London, SW12 8QG
Planning appeal 3365565 at 9 Hollies Way, Temperley Road, Wandsworth, London, SW12 8QG (London Borough of Wandsworth) was allowed on 2 July 2025 by Inspector Burley P, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether prior approval should be granted, having particular regard to the effect of the external appearance of the development on the character and appearance of the area.
follows: ‘The proposed works will involve the enlargement of an existing single storey studio dwelling. The enlargement will consist of the construction of one additional storey immediately above the roof of the existing property in accordance with Permitted Development. The additional storey shall be constructed only on the principal part (existing roof) of the dwellinghouse.’

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether prior approval should be granted, having particular regard to the effect of the external appearance of the development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The varied character of the surrounding area, combined with the visual screening provided by existing four-storey blocks and the context of permitted changes already made to the estate, means the additional storey would not result in a visually prominent, intrusive or incongruous addition that would detract from local spatial character.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- LP1LP5
