1.The proposed two storey rear extension by reason of its scale, bulk, mass and proximity to the boundary would infill the space at first floor level between the application dwelling and its neighbour giving rise to a cramped appearance which is uncharacteristic of the Gidea Park Special Character Area and visually harmful within the rear garden environment. For this reason the extension is considered to be contrary to the aims and objectives of the Residential Extensions and Alterations Supplementary Planning Document, Policy DC61 and DC69 of the LDF Core Strategy and Development Control Policies Development Plan Document.
2.The proposed two storey rear extension would, by reason of its excessive width, depth, height and position close to the boundary of the site, be an intrusive and unneighbourly development as well as having an adverse effect on the amenities of the Neighbour at No. 37a Wallenger Avenue contrary to Residential Extensions and Alterations Supplementary Planning Document and Policies DC61 & DC69 - LDF Core Strategy and Development Control Policies Development Plan Document.
