Right to Light

The right to light is a legal entitlement that allows property owners to receive a certain amount of natural daylight through their windows or openings. If nearby development blocks or diminishes this light, the owner may have the right to take legal action to prevent or limit such interference. The core idea is that property owners should retain reasonable access to natural light, and any substantial obstruction could be subject to legal remedies, ensuring that their property’s enjoyment isn’t unjustly compromised by neighboring constructions.
