| 1. | Policy HOU18 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan states that extensions and alterations to dwellings will be permitted where the amenity of neighbours is adequately safeguarded and the character of the area is not adversely affected. The extension or alteration must :-(a) Be in keeping with the design of the existing dwelling and the character of the area; (b) Not prejudice the amenities of a neighbouring dwelling and (c) Not result in over-development of the site's curtilage. The proposal is contrary to the objectives of Policy HOU18 in that, the first floor extension and formation of a balcony adjacent to the southern boundary of the adjoining property would be an unneighbourly form of development by reason of overshadowing, loss of privacy and loss of visual amenity. A first floor extension almost on the boundary of the site would also be out of character with the existing area which consists of dwellings on spacious plots with reasonable gaps between the houses. |
