Construction of a replacement dwelling following the demolition of the existing dwelling with associated landscape works.

1. The proposal owing to the volume and footprint of the replacement dwelling would result in an unduly prominent and physically obtrusive form of development which would have an unacceptably urbanising and increased physical impact upon this area designated as a Special Policy Area and Countryside, to the detriment of its prevailing character. The application is therefore contrary to Policies S5, DM1, DM26 and BU7 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan 2016-2036
2. Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that there would be no adverse impact upon the existing protected trees on site. As such, the proposal is contrary to Policy DM1 of the Eastleigh Borough Local Plan (2016-2036) and the Trees and Development SPD (2021)
3. Note to Applicant: The application was refused following the assessment of the following plans: 2205_101_A, 2205_102_A, 2205_103_A, 2205_110_B, 2205_201_A, 2205_201, 2205_301, 2205_400, 2205_400_A, 2205_401, 2205_402, 2205_410, 2205_411, 2205_412, 2205_413, 2205_414, 2205_415, 2205_DAS, and 00_22_09.29. In accordance with paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework (February 2019), Eastleigh Borough Council takes a positive approach to the handling of development proposals so as to achieve, whenever possible, a positive outcome and to ensure all proposals are dealt with in a timely manner.
