Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the supply of family housing in the Borough
- whether the proposal would provide sufficient external amenity space for future occupiers of the first floor flat
- whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers of the ground floor flat in respect of privacy and outlook
What decided it
The harm to the character and appearance of the area, identified as a matter of considerable importance in achieving high-quality design and sustainable development, outweighed the limited benefits of providing one additional dwelling.
