Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by virtue of its height, scale and mass would result in a building that appears dominant, incongruous, and at odds with the prevailing character of the locality, and the scale of the neighbouring properties. Overall, the development has not been designed to harmonise with the existing dwelling, nor reflect the character exhibited within the locality and would therefore be considered to result in harm to both the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and the surrounding area, contrary to the Chilterns Local Plan policies GC1 and H15, the Neighbourhood Plan for Chalfont St Giles Parish 2014-2036 Design Policy 1, policies C1 of the National Design Guide, Section 12 of the NPPF and the Chiltern and South Bucks Townscape Character Study 2017.

From the council's decision notice.
