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
- The effect on the living conditions of the occupants of no.29 Edward Road in relation to outlook and sense of enclosure
What decided it
The proposed extension's depth of approximately 5m would significantly exceed design guidance and the fallback permission, causing unacceptable harm to both the character of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupants through loss of outlook and increased sense of enclosure.
