Delegated decision: Refused · Ellie Roe
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed dwelling by reason of its design, scale and location results in
an incongruous development that is out of character with the nearby pattern of
development and prevailing urban grain. Due to its location and siting the
proposal poses legibility issues, reduces the functionality and integration with the
local area. As such, the proposal is contrary to the National Planning Policy
Framework (NPPF), policies 7.4 and 7B of the Ealing Development Management
Development Plan (2013) and policies D3 and D4 of the London Plan (2021), the
Ealing Housing Design Guidance (2022) and policy DAA of the draft Ealing Local
Plan Regulation 22 (2024).
2
The application drawings inaccurately demonstrate the existing situation on
the site, with the access road encroaching on the external private amenity space
for Nos. 37-41 Grosvenor Road, to the detriment of the living conditions for the
occupiers of the Ground Floor flats. This would cause unacceptable impacts on the
residents and as such, the proposal does not comply with Paragraph 140 of the
NPPF (2024) and is contrary to policies D3 and D6 of the London Plan (2021),
policy 7B of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013) and policy DAA of
the draft Ealing Local Plan Regulation 22 (2024).
3
The proposed dwelling, by reason of the lack of private outdoor amenity
space would fail to provide an acceptable level and quality of accommodation, to
the detriment of the living conditions of future occupiers. As such, the proposal is
contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy 3.5 of the Ealing
Development Management DPD (2013) and the London Plan Guidance: Housing
Design Standards (2023).
4
The proposed dwelling, by reason of the lack of information submitted on
Biodiversity Net Gain, fails to account for biodiversity and ecology impacts of the
development. As such, the proposal does not comply with Schedule 7A of the
Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (inserted by the Environment Act 2021) and
is contrary to Policies G5 and G6 of the London Plan (2021).
