Why it was refused

  1. The proposed raised patio, extending the full width of the plot, would create an elevated platform enabling direct overlooking into the neighbouring gardens at Nos. 67 and 71 Hamilton Road. This would result in an unacceptable loss of privacy, particularly affecting the patio areas of both adjoining occupiers. The development would therefore cause material harm to neighbouring residential amenity and is contrary to Policy CDH01 of the Barnet Local Plan (2025) and Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021).
  2. The proposed roof form of the side extension and porch fails to reflect the pitch of the original roofscape, resulting in an incongruous addition that harms the character and appearance of the host property and the wider street scene. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policies CDH01 and CDH05 of the LB Barnet Local Plan (2025) and the Residential Design Guidance SPD (2016).

From the council's decision notice.
