Why it was refused

  1. The proposed extensions and alterations, by reason of their scale, massing, form and roof design, would appear incongruous and overly dominant, disrupting the simple and coherent roofscape and established pattern of development. The proposal would therefore harm the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, contrary to Policies DM32 and DM38 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan Part 1 and the Residential Design Guide SPD (RDG2).
  2. The proposed single-storey rear extension, by reason of its depth, height and position along the shared boundary with 4 Priests Way, would result in an overbearing and tunnelling effect, harming the outlook from the No 4's rear windows and garden, resulting in an unacceptable impact on living conditions.

From the council's decision notice.
