Why it was refused

  1. The proposed two storey rear extension by reason of its size, scale and massing would result in a dominating addition, which would not be subservient to the parent dwelling. The proposal would not achieve a high standard of design and would be out of keeping with the character and appearance of the application dwelling and that of the surrounding area, contrary to Policies DES4, HOU11 and VILL1 of the East Herts District Plan 2018, Policy SP13 of the Standon Neighbourhood Plan and the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework.
  2. The two storey rear extension by reason of its position, size and scale would have a detrimental effect upon the amenities of 42 Station Road by reason of its overbearing impact on reduced levels of light and loss of outlook contrary to Policy DES4 of the East Herts District Plan 2018.

From the council's decision notice.
