Why it was refused

  1. The rear extension by virtue of its form and external appearance fails to provide a high-quality form of development that has regard to the host dwelling or the surrounding built environment and is therefore out of keeping with the existing dwelling and the character and appearance of the area. The proposal is contrary to Policy EM10 of the Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011-2029 and advice within the Design and Sustainability Supplementary Planning Document (July 2018) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
  2. The rear extension by virtue of its overall scale and appearance along the shared boundary to the neighbouring property of 9 Candover Close presents a prominent and intrusive form of development to the private amenity space of this neighbouring dwelling contrary to Policy EM10 of the Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011-2029, guidance contained within the Design and Sustainability Supplementary Planning Document (July 2018) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
