Why it was refused
- The proposed front extension, by reason of its scale, massing, depth and prominent forward projection, would appear visually dominant and incongruous within the streetscene. The development would fail to respect the character, proportions and simple form of the host dwelling and would erode the established uniform appearance of the terrace, to the detriment of the visual amenity of the area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies BD6 and GP5 of the UDP, Policy P10 of the Core Strategy, and Policy HDG1 of the Householder Design Guide SPD, which seek to ensure that extensions are appropriately designed, proportionate and responsive to their context.
- The proposed front and rear extensions, by virtue of their scale, depth, siting and relationship to the shared boundary with No. 67 South Approach, would result in an overbearing and enclosing form of development. In particular, the rear extension would cause an unacceptable loss of outlook and give rise to an undue sense of enclosure to neighbouring rear-facing windows and the adjoining garden area, whilst the front extension would adversely affect outlook from the adjoining bay window and create an over dominant relationship with the neighbouring entrance. The proposal would therefore Merrion House 110 Merrion Centre Leeds LS2 8BB Town and Country Planning Act 1990 result in an unacceptable harm to the residential amenity of neighbouring occupiers, contrary to Policy GP5 of the UDP, Policy P10 of the Core Strategy, and Policy HDG2 of the Householder Design Guide SPD, which seek to protect the living conditions of existing residents.
From the council's decision notice.
