Scheme description

Construction of a two storey rear extension.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed cumulative rear extension, by virtue of its scale, depth and siting together with existing projections, would not appear subservient in relation to no. 46 Byron Road. This is considered harmful to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and wider terrace row and is contrary to the design objectives of Policy 53 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1 (2024).

Reason 2

The proposed rear extension would result in a loss of outlook and increased sense of enclosure for occupiers of a first-floor habitable room serving no. 44 Byron Road and, without evidence to the contrary, also for occupiers of a first-floor habitable room serving no. 48 Byron Road. This is to the detriment of continued enjoyment of the dwellinghouse(s), is therefore considered harmful to residential amenity and is contrary to the aims and objectives of of Policy 57 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1 (2024).
