Why it was refused

  1. Due to its nature and proximity to the basement level amenity areas to the west, the proposed development would adversely impact the occupiers of 10 Lind Road and 12 Lind Road in terms of loss of outlook and sense of enclosure. The application would therefore be contrary to Policy 29 of the Sutton Local Plan 2018 and guidance set out in SPD4 'Design of Residential Extensions'.

From the council's decision notice.
