Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, the pair of dwellings and the wider surrounding area
What decided it
The proposed two storey side extension would be unduly large, materially wider than the existing front wall area, and would dominate the host dwelling and pair of dwellings, failing to restore symmetry and conflicting with design policies and guidance.
