Why it was refused

  1. The proposed two storey extension, by virtue of its siting within close proximity to the common boundary with 68 Pennard Drive, would give rise to an unacceptable overlooking impact onto the rear private amenity space of this neighbouring dwelling, to the detriment of the living conditions of its occupiers, contrary to Policy PS2 of the Swansea Local Development Plan (2019), the Council's Placemaking Guidance for Householder Development (2021) and Placemaking Guidance for the Gower AONB (2021).

From the council's decision notice.
