Why it was refused

Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The loss of the reception room and dining room, to additional bedrooms, would result in unacceptable intensification of use of the only remaining communal room, to the detriment of residents' amenity and neighbouring amenity for number 35 Longfield Avenue. This is contrary to Policies 10 and 29 of the Sutton Local Plan.
