Why it was refused

  1. The proposed single-storey rear extension, by reason of its excessive depth, would represent an unduly overbearing and visually dominant addition which fails to read as subservient to the host dwelling. The proposal would therefore be out of keeping with, and harmful to, the character of the area. As such the proposal would conflict with Policies SP4 and DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan and London Plan Policy D3.

From the council's decision notice.
