Why it was refused

  1. The proposed single-storey front extension, by virtue of its excessive projection, width and overall poor design, would result in a visually dominant and unsympathetic form of development that would not appear subordinate to the main dwelling and would fail to complement the character of the street scene. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy DM10(c) of the Site Allocations and Development Management Policies Development Plan Document (2016), the Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council Good Design Guide (2020), and Paragraph 139 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
