Why it was refused

  1. The proposed part two-storey, part single-storey front and side extension, by reason of its excessive width, bulk and scale, prominent side-gabled roof form, and the extensive use of standing seam metal cladding, would constitute a visually dominant, incongruous and unsympathetic addition to the host dwelling. The proposal would fail to respect the established architectural character of the host property and would not respond positively to the prevailing pattern of development, roof forms and traditional material palette which characterise Savile Road. As such, the development would cause harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the wider street scene, contrary to Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Core Strategy Policy P10, Saved Unitary Development Plan Review Policies GP5 and BD6, and Householder Design Guide SPD Policy HDG1.

From the council's decision notice.
