Description

A rare development site on Brecknock Road, most recently used as a recording studio, where planning was granted for a contemporary two-storey house of approximately 830 sq ft with a study and a private terrace.

Located on the west side of Brecknock Road in the London Borough of Camden, which connects with Camden Road and York Way at its southern end. Kentish Town station (Northern line and Thameslink) to the west and Tufnell Park station (Northern line) to the north-west are both less than 15 minutes' walk away. Numerous bus routes serve the immediate area, offering quick connections to Camden, King's Cross, Euston, Bloomsbury, the West End and the City.

The site is accessed via a secluded driveway serving two end of terrace buildings. Located at the rear of a mixed-use building, the space has most recently been used as a recording studio and storage space. Planning was granted for a two-storey house with two double bedrooms and a study, extending to approximately 830 sq ft excluding the terrace. Buyers are advised to verify the current status of the planning permission with the London Borough of Camden.

This is a rare opportunity for a unique build in a sought-after residential area, with excellent amenities right on its doorstep. The contemporary design features aluminium-framed doors from the living space opening onto the proposed terrace, enclosed with a metal balustrade and a privacy screen with planters. A green roof has been included to help reduce the building's environmental impact, and there is also a recessed area for bin storage and cycle parking.

The approved plans allow for two double bedrooms on the ground floor, one with an en-suite, a further family bathroom and a study, which could serve as a third bedroom. The first floor is entirely given over to an open-plan living space of 28ft in length, with a kitchen and access to the private terrace.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
