Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would constitute a separate dwelling from 49B Teme Road, and if so, its effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to privacy and visual impact
  • the effect of the proposed development on highway safety

What decided it

The proposed annex would constitute a separate dwelling rather than ancillary accommodation due to lack of physical and functional connection to the host property, and would cause unacceptable harm to character and appearance and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through visual impact and overbearing effect.
