Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of the position and design of the proposed bedroom window, would result in direct and harmful overlooking of neighbouring residential properties, leading to an unacceptable loss of privacy for adjoining occupiers. The development would therefore fail to provide a satisfactory relationship with neighbouring properties and would have a detrimental impact on residential amenity. As such, the proposal is contrary to Policy CS41 of the Core Strategy (2012), which requires development to achieve a high standard of design whilst protecting the amenities of existing and future occupiers from unacceptable impacts.

From the council's decision notice.
