Why it was refused
- The development adversely affects the amenities of residents of 12 Turnfield Road and 19 & 20 The Downs, through an undue loss of privacy arising from the height of the raised patio area and its proximity to neighbouring private garden/amenity areas and habitable room windows. As such, the proposal would not conform to relevant Polices SIE-1 "Quality Places" of the Core Strategy and Policy CDH1.8 "Residential Extensions" of the UDP Review, the 'Extension and Alterations to Dwellings' SPD, and requirements within the National Planning Policy Framework.
- The proposed boundary fencing, by virtue of its excessive height and scale, would result in an undue level of enclosure and dominance when viewed from neighbouring properties, causing material harm to the outlook and general amenity of adjoining occupiers. The fencing would therefore be contrary to relevant Polices SIE-1 "Quality Places" of the Core Strategy and Policy CDH1.8 "Residential Extensions" of the UDP Review, the 'Extension and Alterations to Dwellings' SPD and the National Planning Policy Framework.
- The development, by reason of its bulk, mass, and design, would constitute a poorly designed, incongruous and unsympathetic addition that would visually dominate the application site and have a detrimental harmful impact upon the character and appearance of the immediate built environment in and around the site. As such, the proposal is contrary to Policy SIE-1 "Quality Places" of the adopted Stockport Core Strategy DPD, Policy CDH1.8 "Residential Extensions" of the Stockport Unitary Development Plan Review, the guidelines set out in the 'Extensions and Alterations to Dwellings' SPD, and the National Planning Policy Framework.
- The applicant has failed to provide accurate and reliable plans upon which a complete assessment of the proposal as described by the written description of the development specified on this decision notice. Discrepancies within the submitted drawings, relating to the sloping topography of the site, the extent of the development and its relationship to adjacent properties, prevent the Local Planning Authority from fully understanding the true scale, layout and impact of the scheme. The local planning authoiry is therefore not satisfied that it would comply with the requirements of relevant policies within the Core Strategy DPD and Unitary Development Plan Review or the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
