Description

A rare freehold investment and development opportunity comprising a sui generis property arranged over ground and upper floors, together with a substantial rear site, held across two freehold titles.

The property is currently occupied as a single sui generis use, with the upper floors accessed via the commercial accommodation. To the rear lies a significant site which benefits from a Certificate of Lawfulness secured in 2022 relating to an extant warehouse consent, providing an established planning position for future purchasers.

The size and configuration of the site offer considerable asset management and development potential, with scope for alternative uses subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. Situated within the wider Old Kent Road regeneration area, the property is well positioned to benefit from ongoing investment and infrastructure improvements across the locality.
Situated within the Old Kent Road Opportunity Area, one of London's largest regeneration zones, benefiting from significant public and private investment, planned infrastructure improvements and strong long-term growth prospects.
