Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with regard to loss of privacy
- the character and appearance of the host property and the area, including the Chelsfield Park Area of Special Residential Character
What decided it
The first floor balcony would unacceptably harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overlooking and loss of privacy, making the scheme unacceptable despite acceptable design.
