Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The applicant has failed to provide cogent information, or a suitable mechanism to secure the proposed
dwelling as 'car free', to demonstrate that the proposed development would not result in inconsiderate
parking, increased on-street car parking pressure and an unacceptable impact on highway safety in conflict
with Paragraph 111 of the NPPF, 2021, Policy T4 of the London Plan 2021, and Policies DM9 and DM10 of
the LDF Core Strategy 2012. This holds significant weight against the proposal.
2
Given the uncharacteristic subdivision of the rear amenity space, officers consider that the proposal
would result in a cramped and contrived appearance which would detract from the appearance of the
surrounding area, and appear out of character with the prevailing pattern of development within the
surrounding area. This would be in conflict with Policies D3 of the London Plan 2021 and Policies CS8 and
DM10 of the Council's Core Strategy 2012.
3
Given that the proposal would fail to provide an adequate quality and quantum of internal
accommodation for the 2 bedroom dwelling, and would fail to provide sufficient amenity space for the
existing 3 bedroom dwelling and proposed 2 bedroom dwelling, the proposal would result in a substandard
form of accomodation. Therefore, the proposal would not accord with Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021)
and Policy DM10 of the Core Strategy (2012).
