Why it was refused

  1. The proposed rear dormer, by reason of its design, proportions and materials, would appear out of keeping with the character and appearance of the subject property and the surrounding area. The proposal would have an unacceptably adverse impact on the character and appearance of the dwelling, the locality, and the Conservation Area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies DMP1 and BHC1 of the Brent Local Plan and the Queen’s Park Conservation Area Design Guide.
  2. The current use of the property does not correspond with established planning records and appears to operate in a manner inconsistent with its authorised planning status. This discrepancy has resulted in a lack of clarity regarding the baseline level of occupation and associated activity at the site. Without accurate and reliable information on the lawful use and occupancy of the dwelling, the Local Planning Authority cannot determine with confidence the baseline against which the amenity impacts of the proposed dormer development should be assessed. Accordingly, the proposal fails to demonstrate compliance with Policy DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019–2041), which requires development to safeguard the amenities of existing and future occupiers and avoid unacceptable increases in noise, disturbance and generalised activity.

From the council's decision notice.
