Scheme description

Change of use from first floor office (Use Class E) to a self-contained flat (Use Class C3).

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed development due to its poor provision of natural light and outlook to the living room would result in a substandard form of accommodation prejudicial to the living conditions of future occupants of the self-contained flat. The development is therefore contrary to Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024), Policies D3 and D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policies CP4 and CP30 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010) and Policies DMD8 and DMD37 of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014).

Reason 2

The proposed development, in the absence of adequate waste storage, fails to provide a convenient and accessible facility for managing waste generated by the development, contrary to Section 9 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2021), Policies T2, T3, T4, T6, T6.1 and T7 of the London Plan (2021), CP22 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010), DMD8, DMD30, DMD45, DMD46, DMD47, DMD48 and DMD57 of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014) and the Enfield Household Recycling and Waste Planning Guidance for New Developments (2024).
