Single storey, part two storey side extension; single storey side/rear extension; part first floor rear extension; single storey front porch extension; removal of chimney stack; rear roof extension and increase in ridge height
The proposed retention of the raised main roof ridge and retention of the rear roof extension would result in unacceptable change to the appearance of the host building and results in overscale additions, lacking in subordination which taken as a whole are harmful to the appearance of the host building, and is out of keeping with the character and appearance of the area. As such the proposal is considered to run contrary to the NPPF (2025), policies D4 of the London Plan (2021), policies 7.4 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013).
The application is recommended for refusal as the submitted drawings contain discrepancies and do not accurately reflect the development built on site including the roof form to the first floor side extension, the loss of the pitched roof on the side elevation of the main dwelling, the addition of a ground floor side elevation window, and the formation of new windows at first floor level on the rear elevation. As a result, the proposal cannot be properly assessed and is contrary to London Plan Policy D4 (Delivering Good Design) and Policy 7C of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013).
The proposed first floor rear extension, by reason of its scale, bulk and form, would appear as an overbearing and disproportionate addition that fails to respect the architectural integrity, proportions of the host dwelling. The resulting massing would create an unsympathetic and visually intrusive form, contrary to the design requirements of the NPPF (2025), Policies 7.4 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013), and Policies D1 and D4 of the London Plan (2021).
