Officer's Report

The proposal is set to the rear of the property. The roof of the proposal will be partially visible from Station Road and Faaie Craine. However, I do not feel the proposal will cause any significant harm to the visual amenities of the street scene.

Impact on the public footpath running along the northern boundary of the site will be minimal. The proposal will be obscured from view due to substantial landscaping on the boundary with the footpath. I consider the proposal will not adversely affect the visual amenities of the footpath.

In relation to No. Rowan Avenue, the application site is set to the north of the neighbouring property. The proposal is set off the boundary by 7.5m. There is substantial landscaping along the boundary which approximately 9m in height. I do not feel the proposal will cause any significant harm to the occupiers of No. Rowan Avenue from overlooking or overshadowing.
