Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of the neighbouring property known as Dacora, with specific regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposed first-floor side extension, when considered with all material circumstances including its design features, setback, and the multiple outlooks available to the neighbouring property's affected room, would not create an overtly oppressive or intrusive feeling and would not conflict with local plan policies requiring acceptable living conditions.
