Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would be tantamount to the creation of an independent dwelling; and if so, whether it would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants, with particular regard to private amenity space, landscaping, parking and waste provision

What decided it

The adverse impacts of unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers, particularly the inadequate private amenity space, landscaping, parking and waste provision, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest housing supply benefits when assessed against the Framework as a whole.

The modest but worthwhile contribution to housing supply in a sustainable location with good infrastructure and associated economic and environmental benefits were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers with regard to private amenity space, landscaping, parking and waste provision.
