| 1. | The proposed loft conversion would be unsympathetic to the character of
the existing dwelling and its setting, and would perpetuate a visually
unsatisfactory type of residential extension (previously used elsewhere
in this locality) which is considered to be contrary to the aims of the
Adopted Version of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan as set out in Policy BNV18.
Furthermore, it is considered that the proposal would also be contrary to
the objectives of Policy HOU18 of the Local Plan as, in addition to the
above mentioned design aspect, the creation of relatively large first
floor windows, particularly at the rear, would introduce a degree of
overlooking which would be unneighbourly and detrimental to the amenities
of adjacent residential properties. |
