Second floor extension including front dormer windows to provide 2no self-contained flats with private terrace area and rooflights to rear elevation. Replacement of first floor front windows and associated internal alterations to the central stair and re-arranging unit 2 on the first floor.
The proposed development would by reason of its size, siting, scale, bulk and design be an incongruous and unsympathetic addition to the host building resulting in a detrimental impact to the character and appearance of the host building and the Wood Street Conservation Area particularly given its location between the two locally listed neighbouring buildings and setting of the Grade II Listed Church building. The proposal would neither preserve nor enhance the Wood Street Conservation Area, contrary to Policies D1, D4 and HC1 of the London Plan (2021), Policies CS1 and CS5 of the London Borough of Barnet: Local Plan (Core Strategy) DPD (2012), Policies DM01 and DM06 of the London Borough of Barnet: Local Plan (Development Management Policies) DPD (2012), the Wood Street Conservation Area Character Appraisal and the Residential Design Guidance SPD (2016)
