- Impact on light: The side extension could potentially affect the amount of natural light received by neighbouring properties. This is particularly relevant if the extension is close to boundary lines.
- Privacy: The extension may alter the privacy levels for both the occupants of the property and neighbouring homes, especially if windows are added that overlook adjacent gardens or living spaces.
