Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to internal layout, outlook, daylight, noise and outdoor amenity space
- the effect of the proposed development on the supply of family housing within the area
What decided it
The poor design and inadequate living conditions for future occupiers, combined with the net loss of family housing, significantly and demonstrably outweigh the limited housing supply benefit when assessed against the Framework as a whole.
the adverse impacts of poor design and loss of family housing significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefit of one additional dwelling to housing supply
