Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the local area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 54 and 58 Bancroft Avenue with regard to outlook, visual impact and sense of enclosure

What decided it

The proposed development would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the host building and the local area by appearing as an overly large, box-like addition that would visually dominate the rear elevation, conflicting with development plan policies requiring extensions to be subordinate to the original house.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy CS1 of Barnet's Local Plan (Core Strategy), Policy CS5 of Barnet's Local Plan (Core Strategy), Policy DM01 of Barnet's Local Plan (Development Management Policies)
