Reasons 1
It is the opinion of the local planning authority that, by reason of the size of the extension and its siting, in close proximity to neighbouring properties, it would be an intrusive and over-dominant feature, which would overshadow and have an overbearing impact on the adjacent dwelling at 62 Sullington Road, to the detriment of the residential amenities of the occupiers of that property. For this reason, the proposal would be contrary to the intentions of policy CS 2 of the adopted Charnwood Local Plan 2011 to 2028 Core Strategy and saved Policies EV/1 and H/17 of the adopted Borough of Charnwood Local Plan. These policies seek to ensure that extensions to dwellings are compatible in scale and design with the original dwelling and that they are not detrimental in terms of overshadowing or overdominance of adjacent properties. In these terms, the proposal is also in conflict with the advice given on the location of extensions in the Borough Council's adopted Supplementary Planning Guidance on House Extensions.
