Why it was refused

  1. The height and massing of the proposal, in close proximity to existing dwellings, would be visually overbearing and result in a harmful loss of light and outlook to the rear facing flats, in particular Garden Flat A. The development would create an overbearing and enclosing relationship with neighbouring properties, contrary to London Plan Policy D6 and Croydon Local Plan (2018) Policies SP4 and DM10.
  2. The proposed home would not provide an acceptable standard of accommodation for future occupiers by reason of inadequate floor space and amenity space and limited outlook. The development is therefore contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018) and the London Housing Design Standards LPG (2023). The application fails to demonstrate that the dwelling would meet M4(2) accessible and adaptable standards, with no clear justification or compliance evidence. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy D7 of the London Plan (2021).
  3. The application has not demonstrated that there is sufficient capacity in the surrounding area to accommodate a potential increase in on-street parking, and as such the proposal is contrary to policies T4, T5, T6 and T6.1 of the London Plan (2021) and policies SP8, DM29 and DM30 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018).
  4. It has not been demonstrated that there is adequate space for refuse storage provision on site for the existing and proposed units, contrary to policies DM13 and DM29 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018).
