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 rear box dormer and first floor rear extension combined, constitute poor design and by virtue of their siting, scale, bulk, massing, design and appearance, their combined impact would unduly dominate the rear roof slope and elevation of the host dwelling and appear as incongruous and unsympathetic additions to the property. 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.
