Delegated decision: Refused · Karim El-Houssami
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed first floor rear together with the existing rear dormer extension, by virtue of its
design, size and siting, would appear excessively large, visually intrusive, incongruous, overly dominant
and out of keeping with the character and appearance of the original building, the row of terrace
properties, and the surrounding area of which it forms part, contrary to Section 12 of the National
Planning Policy Framework (2023), Policies D3, D4, D5, D8 of the London Plan (2021), CP30 of the
Enfield Core Strategy (2010) and DMD6, DMD8, DMD11, DMD13 and DMD37 of the Enfield
Development Management Document (2014).
