Condition Details / Information Notes
The proposed development would, due to the number and relative size of dwellings proposed, result in overdevelopment of the site with each of the dwellings appearing cramped within their respective plots. Additionally, the proposed roofs with their shallow pitches would fail to reflect the form of the existing properties along Upper Chase Road and therefore detract from the character and appearance of the area. Accordingly, the proposal would be contrary to Policy 21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan, Policies MD1 and MH2 of the Malvern Town Neighbourhood Plan and the NPPF.
The proposed dwelling on plot 3 would, by reason of its relative height and proximity to No. 9 Upper Chase Road, and particularly the windows in its west facing flank wall, be overbearing and result in loss of outlook and natural light to that property. The proposal would therefore result in unacceptable harm to the residential amenity currently enjoyed by the occupiers of 9 Upper Chase Road. Accordingly, the development would be contrary to Policy 21 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan, Policies MD1 and MH2 of the Malvern Town Neighbourhood Plan, the South Worcestershire SPD Design Guide and the NPPF.

This is in accordance with paragraph 38 of the NPPF.  Despite these efforts, the Council still consider that planning permission should be refused for the reasons set out above.
