Why it was refused

  1. The proposed detached building, by virtue of its comprehensive residential accommodation, internal arrangement, physical separation from the main dwelling and associated outdoor amenity area, would be capable of functioning independently of the principal dwelling and would have insufficient physical and functional connection with it. The development would therefore exhibit the characteristics of a separate self-contained residential unit rather than accommodation genuinely ancillary to the existing dwelling. The Council is consequently not satisfied that there would be a reasonable means of preventing the building from being occupied as a separate dwelling unit. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies H19, H20 and GB15 of the Adopted Chiltern District Local Plan 1997 (including alterations adopted 29 May 2001), Consolidated September 2007 and November 2011.

From the council's decision notice.
