Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed extensions on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area
  • the living conditions of existing and future occupiers of the property, with particular regard to private amenity space

What decided it

The proposal would cause material harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of occupants through loss of functional private amenity space, conflicting with the development plan with no overriding material considerations to justify approval.

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy CS03 of the Leicester City Core Strategy (2014), Policy PS10 of the Saved City of Leicester Local Plan (2006)
