Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by reason of the significant loss of commercial floorspace at ground floor and lack of information submitted has failed to demonstrate that the development would not lead to a loss of a commercial unit and a harmful break in the continuity of frontages. This is contrary to BE6 of the Brent Local Plan (2019-2041).
  2. The proposed development by reason of the restricted bedroom size for Flat 2, the insufficient floor to ceiling heights for Flats 1 and 3, the restricted outlook for Flats 1, 3 and 4 and lack of privacy for Flats 3, 4 and 5 would fail to provide adequate internal amenity for future occupiers. This is contrary to policies BD1 and DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019-2041) and policy D6 of the London Plan (2021).
  3. The proposed development by reason of its bulk, scale, proximity to neighbouring gardens and windows would have harmful impact on the residential amenity with regards to loss of outlook, light and privacy to neighboring occupiers No.1102A and No.1098A Harrow Road and No.2 Victor Road. This is contrary to policies BD1 and DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019-2041) and policy D6 of the London Plan (2021).
  4. The proposed development by reason of its scale, design and bulk would result in an overdevelopment of the site to the detriment of the character and appearance of the host building and the local context. This is contrary to policies BD1 and DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019-2041).
