Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area
What decided it
The fallback position of an approved side extension, combined with the proposal's design to appear as an extension rather than a separate dwelling and the housing supply benefit, outweighed the minor adverse effect on character and appearance.
