Why it was refused

  1. The proposal would by reason of its design, scale and close proximity to the boundary form an unduly dominant and overbearing element resulting in a loss of spatial quality, and terracing effect within the street scene, causing harm to the visual amenity and appearance of the surrounding area coupled with the loss of privacy to neighbouring occupiers due to the positioning of the extended raised patio in relation to the boundary, contrary to Policy BE14 of the Brentwood Local Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework.
  2. The drawings submitted as part of the application do not contain details of the gutter positioning which due to the siting of the two storey side extension with its eaves positioned on the boundary when added would appear to overhang the site boundary. The proposals therefore cannot demonstrate the proposals could be constructed wholly within the boundary of the application site Brentwood Borough Council, Town Hall, Ingrave Road, Brentwood, Essex CM15 8AY

From the council's decision notice.
