Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the street scene
What decided it
The formation of gable ends and rearward extension to form a crown roof would materially alter the roof mass and visual relationship with the host dwelling, appearing incongruous and at odds with the established roofscape, causing harm to the character and appearance of the host property and street scene.
The private benefits of modernisation and improved family accommodation, which attract only limited weight, do not outweigh the harm to the character and appearance of the host property and street scene.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy DM2 of the Elmbridge Development Management Plan (2015)Policy CS17 of the Core Strategy (2011)
