Why it was refused

  1. The proposed alterations as set out within the Variation of Condition 2 (plans), would re-introduce design alterations which were previously considered unacceptable in the original application reference: 25/1279/HSE. The alterations would introduce a disproportionate amount of glazing to the front elevation which would harm the character and appearance of the dwelling and would represent poor quality design. This would result in glazing typically found at the rear elevation and thus atypical of a front elevation of this nature, detracting from the architectural quality of the property. The proposals would result in a very low level of 'less than substantial harm' to the conservation area. Insufficient public benefits exist which would outweigh this harm. The proposal therefore does not comply with the NPPF 2024, policies SP1, CS14, CS22 of the Core Strategy 2013, Policies SADM29 and SADM30 of the Site Allocations and Development Management Policies Plan 2016, the Planning and Design Guide Part E, Policy HD3 of the Radlett Neighbourhood Plan and the Radlett South Conservation Area appraisal.

From the council's decision notice.
