Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development would fail to provide an acceptable standard of accommodation for future occupiers. Bedrooms 2 and 3 would be accessed directly from the communal kitchen, resulting in poor levels of privacy and amenity. In addition, the proposed kitchens would lack natural light and ventilation and appear constrained in their layout, no internal communal living space would be provided, and access to the rear garden would be via a convoluted and impractical arrangement, with Bedrooms 2 and 3 lacking defensible space from the communal garden. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy 3.5 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013), and the Ealing HMO Standards (2025).

From the council's decision notice.
