Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for the future occupants of the ground floor flat, having particular regard to privacy, outlook, noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposed ground floor flat would fail to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants due to inadequate privacy from overlooking via side windows facing shared access routes and unacceptable noise and disturbance from the adjacent commercial unit, which harm significantly outweighs the moderate housing and limited economic benefits of the proposal.
