Why it was refused

  1. The existing home does not meet the minimum space requirements for a conversion and would not result in at least a three-bedroom family dwelling. The proposal fails to meet criteria a and b of Policy BH11 of Brent’s Local Plan.
  2. The proposed door replacement, by virtue of design and consequent poor relationship with the subject property would materially harm the character and appearance of the non-designated heritage asset contrary to Policy DMP1 and BHC1 of Brent’s Local Plan 2019-2041.
  3. The proposal would fail to deliver a suitable standard of internal amenity due to the shortfall in habitable space for Flat D as well as insufficient head room for future occupants, contrary to London Plan 2021 Policy D6 - Housing Quality and Standards, and therefore would not provide a suitable standard of accommodation, failing to accord with Policy DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan 2019-2041.

From the council's decision notice.
