Why it was refused
- The proposed rear extension, by virtue of its form, layout and scale would appear out of context to the character and appearance of the existing dwelling and wider area, which would appear as an incongruous addition to the host dwelling and this row of terraced dwellings, and would read as a visually discordant extension which would not respect the form or proportions of the existing dwelling at odds with the prevailing pattern of development and character of the area. In addition, the rear extension would be of an overt scale and height visible from the rear of adjoining properties and would introduce an overbearing impact on neighbouring amenity. The proposal therefore does not accord with the provisions of Policy 33 of the Horsham District Planning Framework (2015).
