Why it was refused

  1. It is considered that the proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the residential neighbouring amenity of numbers 96 and 100 Gladstone Road East. The two-storey rear extension would be overbearing and lead to a loss of light and outlook from the neighbouring windows at 100 Gladstone Road East. The new windows to the bedroom and kitchen would create overlooking which is of excessive detriment to the neighbouring amenity of number 96. This constitutes detrimental harm to the neighbouring amenity of this dwellinghouse which is contrary to Policy CS41 of the Bournemouth Local Core Strategy (2012), Policy BAP2 of the Boscombe and Pokesdown Neighbourhood Plan (2019) as well as the provisions of the adopted Residential Extensions: A Design Guide (2008) and the NPPF (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
