Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the appeal proposal upon the occupants of 5 Old Heath Way, with specific reference to outlook
- Whether the scheme would enable adequate private amenity space to be retained for existing and future occupants of the host dwelling
What decided it
The extension's single-storey flat-roof form and modest depth of 3.8m would not be unduly overbearing on the neighbouring property's outlook, and the loss of garden area would not be significant given the conservatory's limited current use.

- Development plan policies
- Policy TD1 of the Waverley Borough Local Plan (Part 1) 2018Policy FNP16 of the Farnham Neighbourhood Plan 2020Policy DM5 of the Waverley Borough Local Plan (Part 2) 2023
