Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the adequacy of the garden area
- Whether the cycle storage arrangement would meet the needs of future occupiers and support sustainable travel
What decided it
The poor quality of the garden space and inadequate cycle storage would result in unsatisfactory living conditions that conflict with development plan policies and Framework objectives, and this harm is not outweighed by the modest benefits of providing a single dwelling.
Framework references: 11
Plan policies cited: Policy 50, Policy 52, Policy 56, Policy 82
