Why it was refused

  1. The proposed combination of a first-floor side and rear extension with a substantial sized dual hipped roof to the rear elevation would result in a significant overall increase in scale, bulk and massing of the subject property and by virtue of its appearance, would be an incongruous feature that would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the existing property. Furthermore, due to its position on a corner plot, the south elevation would be prominent from the highway and is considered to represent poor design due to its stark appearance and would therefore have an unacceptable and harmful impact on the street scene. As such the proposal is not considered to comply with Policy CDMP3 of the Adopted Wyre Local Plan (2011-2031), Design Note 1 within the Council's adopted 'Extending Your Home' Supplementary Planning Document, and the provisions of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
