Scheme description

Part single, part two storey rear extension with associated roof alterations involving enlargement of the rear ground floor window and alterations to the existing raised rear patio.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed development, by virtue of the detailed design, scale, siting, materials and form, together with the removal of the visual break between the subject site and adjoining neighbour, would give rise to an awkward, incongruous, bulky and overbearing form of over-development that would be to the detriment of the dwelling and would neither protect nor enhance the conservation area. The proposal would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Conservation Area contrary to Section 72(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. The harm caused is not outweighed by public benefits and therefore fails to accord with Section 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2024; Policy HC1 of the London Plan 2021; Policy 44 of the DMD 2014; Policy 31 of the Core Strategy 2010.

Reason 2

The proposed first floor rear extension, by reason of its design, scale and siting would give rise to an unacceptable loss of amenity to the occupiers of no. 26 Greenway, contrary to policies DMD11 and DMD37 of the Development Management Document 2014 and CP30 of the Core Strategy 2010.
