Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to outlook, privacy and the provision of outdoor space
What decided it
The material harm to the living conditions of future occupiers through inadequate outlook, privacy and outdoor space, which is both significant and enduring, outweighs the benefits of providing one additional dwelling in an area with a housing land supply shortfall.
The benefits of housing delivery and proximity to public transport and services were outweighed by the significant and enduring harm to the living conditions of future occupiers through inadequate outlook, privacy and outdoor space.
