Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed rear and side extension on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future residents, with regard to the provision of private outdoor amenity space for Flat 2
What decided it
The absence of private outdoor amenity space for Flat 2 resulted in unacceptable living conditions that significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest housing supply and economic benefits, even under the tilted balance.
The modest contribution to housing supply and economic benefits attracted moderate weight, but the serious adverse impacts of unacceptable living conditions and failure to secure a well-designed place significantly and demonstrably outweighed these benefits, so the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
