Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, particularly with regard to the size of the proposed development and the size of the plot
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, particularly with regard to loss of outlook and privacy
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupants, particularly with regard to internal living space
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of both neighbouring occupiers at 20 Grove Place and future occupants through inadequate internal space and non-compliance with the Technical Housing Standard outweighed the moderate benefits of providing one additional dwelling.
