Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its size siting, excessive scale, bulk, massing and design, including the cumulative width of the side extensions, the excessive projection of the two storey rear extension, the dominant crown roof form and oversized dormer extensions, would result in substantial extensions to the dwelling house that would fail to appear subordinate and result in a visually intrusive, disproportionate and incongruous form of development that would subsume the characteristics of the original dwelling and harm the character and appearance of the host site, the corner plot and the surrounding street scene. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies CDH01 and CDH05 of the Barnet Local Plan (2025), Policies D1 and D3 of the London Plan (2021), and the design guidance contained within the Sustainable Design and Development Guidance SPD (2026).

From the council's decision notice.
