Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed development when taken as a whole is unacceptable by virtue of the addition of an unsympathetic and incongruous 'box like' rear dormer which due to its design, being built straight up from the side and rear wall results in a two storey rear extension to a bungalow property. Furthermore, its significant scale, mass and lack of glazing overwhelms and dominates the roof and the dormer fails to respect the proportions of the host property, resulting in significant harm to the character appearance and form of the host property. As such the proposal fails to accord with the aims of Policy P10 of the Leeds Core Strategy (revised 2019). Saved Policies GP5 and BD6 of the Leeds Unitary Development Plan (review 2006), Policy HDG1 of the Leeds Householder Design Guide (2012).

From the council's decision notice.
