Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring property, 145 Abbots Gardens, having particular regard to privacy and outlook
What decided it
The cumulative visual effect of the proposed side extension, first-floor rear extension, and planned roof extensions would create an inharmonious rear elevation and awkward, bulky appearance that would harm the character and appearance of the area, contrary to local and national design policies.
