Land and Garages on Aldersgrove Avenue, SE9

A rare freehold residential development opportunity comprising a rectangular concrete hardstanding site extending to approximately 5,107 sq ft. The property currently accommodates 16 single lock-up garages together with a small electricity sub-station.

The garages are presently vacant/derelict and the site offers significant redevelopment potential, subject to the requisite consents. A positive pre-application response has previously been received from the local authority supporting residential redevelopment in principle. An earlier indicative scheme proposed the construction of 3 x 4-bedroom, 7-person houses.

Planning is now APPROVED (showing currently as pending whilst the s106 is negotiated) for the demolition of the existing garages and erection of a part 3, part 4 storey residential building comprising nine flats, together with associated amenity space, cycle storage and refuse facilities.

The site is well located for the amenities, transport links and wider facilities of Bromley and the surrounding South East London area. Mottingham is situated in south-east London within the London Boroughs of Bromley and Lewisham, offering a well-connected suburban location with strong residential appeal. The site occupies a convenient position on Aldersgrove Avenue, accessed directly off Lambscroft Avenue.

The surrounding area provides an excellent range of local amenities and recreational facilities, including Mottingham Playing Fields and several nearby parks and open green spaces. Residents benefit from a selection of local convenience stores, cafés, restaurants and supermarkets, together with a number of well-regarded schools and leisure facilities within easy reach.

The property also benefits from good road connectivity via the nearby A20, providing direct access towards Central London, the South Circular and wider motorway networks.

An electricity substation lease is registered against the property (Title Number EGL607056), dated 18 February 1970. Whilst the lease formally expired on 23 December 2023, it continues under statutory provisions until terminated by either party. The current passing rent is £1 per annum. We understand there may be scope to serve a Section 25 notice to formally terminate the existing lease and either negotiate terms for a new lease or agree relocation of the substation, subject to the relevant statutory procedures and consents.

Further information, planning documentation and title details are available upon request.
