Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development would not enhance the quality of places and spaces or respond positively to aspects of local context and character since the proposed first floor extension by virtue of its excessive scale, deep projection, massing, bulk and contrived form would result in a development that would be unduly excessive, dominant and not subservient to the host bungalow. This would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and to the visual amenities of the surrounding area, contrary to Policy PS2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan (2019) and the Council's Placemaking Guidance for Householder Development (2021).

From the council's decision notice.
