Why it was refused

  1. The proposed Flat 03 would, by reason of its insufficient floorspace and poor, impractical layout, fail to provide an acceptable standard of accommodation, resulting in a substandard living environment for future occupants, contrary to Policy DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019–2041) and Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021).

From the council's decision notice.
