Why it was refused

  1. The proposed two storey side/rear extension, by reason of the excessive bulk, depth and overall massing, together with the expansive and visually dominant crown roof form, would result in an unduly prominent and top heavy form of development out of scale with the existing building. The proposal would fail to respond positively to the existing building, or prevailing low profile roof forms of neighbouring buildings on the southern side of Byron Road and would appear visually intrusive within the street scene. The development would therefore be harmful to the character and appearance of the area, contrary to Policy BE14 of the Brentwood Local Plan, Chapter 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework, and the aims and objectives of the National Design Guide.
  2. The proposed two storey side/rear extension, by reason of its overall height and proximity to the common boundary shared with No.19 Byron Road would result in a material overbearing and dominance effect looming over the neighbouring property to the detriment of the living conditions of those occupiers. The development would therefore result in an unneighbourly form of development contrary to policy BE14 of the Brentwood Local Plan and paragraph 135(f) of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
