General Policy 2
GP2 presumes in favour of development in residential zones provided it respects site/surroundings in siting/layout/scale/design, does not harm landscape/townscape character, resident amenity, provides safe access/parking, and avoids road safety issues. Officer assessed the single dwelling against all relevant tests (b, c, g, h, i), finding it compliant due to setback matching neighbours, consistent varied style, secondary windows protecting amenity, and generous parking exceeding three-dwelling precedent.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with article 14 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (No2) Order 2013 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.

Reason: as proposed the accommodation above the garage would not have sufficient amenity space to constitute a separate dwelling and the provisions shown for access and parking for the main house would be affected by the subdivision of the units.
