Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed ground floor rear extension on the character of the host property, the street scene and the locality
  • the effect of the proposed ground floor rear extension on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at No.5 Grosvenor Gardens in respect of loss of outlook, increased sense of enclosure and potential loss of light and overshadowing

What decided it

The prior approval determination that the ground floor rear extension met the provisions of permitted development rights under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 satisfied the Inspector that the proposal was acceptable despite its impact on neighbouring living conditions.
