PLANS to build an “aspirational house” in a small hamlet have been dashed.
Blueprints were put forward for paddock land opposite the Blue Sari restaurant in Heath Road, Chisbon Heath.
Tendring Council has turned down the scheme saying the site was not “socially sustainable” because the occupiers would have to rely on the use of a car for most journeys.
A council spokesman said: “Although the property was described as aspirational, there was nothing outstanding in terms of design or architecture to set it apart from other homes.”
