Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area
- the residential amenity of the occupiers at 1 Buckingham Road with regards to outlook
What decided it
The proposed development would harm both the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to outlook, and these harms were not outweighed by the benefits of additional living accommodation.
