The site is not zoned for development and lies within an area of High Landscape Value or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance, making the proposal contrary to General Policy 3 of the Isle of Man Stra…
General Policy 3
General Policy 3 states development will not be permitted outside zoned areas except for specific exceptions such as agricultural housing, conversions of redundant rural buildings, previously developed land with landscape improvements, replacement dwellings, or essential agriculture/forestry works. The officer assessed that none applied: the building is new not replacing an existing structure, not agricultural, and within residential curtilage but unzoned countryside.
Environment Policy 2
Environment Policy 2 protects Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance (AHLV), prioritising landscape character unless development causes no harm or location is essential. The proposal was found to harm landscape character due to its size, massing, cottage-like appearance and highway proximity, introducing a visual intrusion in open countryside.
