Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed roof extension due to its design, size, scale and siting extending above existing roof
ridge, would result in an incongruous, unsympathetic and over dominant form of development which
is highly visible within the streetscene and would undermine the symmetry of this pair of semi-
detached houses (no's 46 and 48) and would not be in keeping with the prevailing pattern of
development in the area. As such, the proposal is contrary to policy 28 of the Sutton Local Plan
2018 and the advice in Supplementary Planning Document 4: The Design of Residential Extensions.
