- the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the building and surrounding area
- the living conditions of occupiers of 6 Revesby Close, with particular regard to daylight
What decided it
The proposed front extension would upset the symmetry between the two similar houses and appear incongruous and unsympathetic to the character and appearance of the building and street scene, conflicting with the National Planning Policy Framework and local design policies.
Plan policies cited: Policy DM9 of the Core Strategy and Development Management Policies 2011 – 2028, Principles 7.8, 10.1 and 10.2 of the Residential Design Guide Supplementary Planning Document, Guideline 5 of the Village Design Statement West End Supplementary Planning Document
