Why it was refused

  1. The design and scale of the proposed first floor front and side extension, forward garage enlargement and hip to gable roof extensions would be out of keeping with the design, character and appearance of the existing house and street scene. As such, it would be contrary to Policy PG3 of the Birmingham Development Plan 2017, Birmingham Design Guide SPD 2022, Policy DM2 of the Development Management in Birmingham DPD 2021 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
