Why it was refused

Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The two-storey rear extension and single storey rear extension is inappropriate by virtue of its scale in terms of height, width, bulk and massing resulting in an overbearing, bulky and overly dominant addition that fails to respond appropriately to the host property and local character. The development therefore fails to comply with Policy 53 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1 (2024).
2
The proposed single storey rear extension by virtue of its height and depth would be detrimental to the amenities of the adjoining occupiers on 78 Mornington Road, by reason of overdominance, overshadowing, visual intrusion, loss of light and loss of outlook. Therefore, the proposal would be contrary to Policy 57 of the Waltham Forest Local Plan (2024).
