Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed front extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposed front extension on the living conditions of the occupants of 14 Riverside Crescent, with particular regard to outlook and sense of enclosure
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the scale and design choices of the two-storey front extension would result in significant harm to both the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surroundings, and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing impact and loss of outlook.
