Why it was refused

  1. The proposed single storey side/rear extension by way of its scale and design would result in a dominant, bulky and disproportionate addition in comparison to the existing dwelling which would be to the detriment of both the visual amenity and the character and appearance of the surrounding area contrary to Policy BE14 of the Brentwood Local Plan.

From the council's decision notice.
