Why it was refused

  1. The proposed extension, by virtue of its height, depth and proximity to the shared boundary with No. 36 Station Road, would result in an unacceptable overbearing impact, loss of outlook and overshadowing of that property. The development, therefore, would have a detrimental impact on the residential amenity of adjoining occupiers, contrary to Policy CW2 of the adopted Caerphilly County Borough Local Development Plan up to 2021 and guidance contained within Guidance Note 2 of Supplementary Planning Guidance LPD7: Householder Developments.
  2. By virtue of its design, the proposal would serve to disrupt the established roofline and result in a visually incongruous roof form that fails to respect the character and appearance of the dwelling and area. The proposal, therefore, cannot be seen to have regard for the context of the local built environment and would not exhibit a high standard of design that reinforces attractive qualities of local distinctiveness, contrary to Policy SP6 of the adopted Caerphilly County Borough Local Development Plan up to 2021 and guidance contained within Guidance Note 2 of Supplementary Planning Guidance LPD7: Householder Developments.
