“supporting local services and facilities”

Summary

A self-build bungalow in the side garden of a corner house in Sedgeford, in the Norfolk Coast National Landscape. The dwelling would sit higher than, and alongside, the neighbour's rear garden, overbearing and overlooking it, and the shared turning area would bring vehicle noise next to bedrooms. The self-build status was unsecured. The inspector ran S4, citing S4(2)(a)(ii) (L2(1)(d)) and S4(2)(c) (DP3(3)), and found the limited benefits substantially outweighed. Dismissed.
