Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a development plot with approved planning consent on a sought-after road in Victoria Park, E9.

Positioned along the attractive, tree-lined Groombridge Road, the land is offered with full permission to construct a contemporary, three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence extending to approximately 1,450 sq ft. The proposed design includes a generous open-plan kitchen and dining space, a separate first-floor living room, a private garden, and a roof terrace. Arranged across ground, first and second floors, the dual-aspect layout is designed to maximise natural light and enjoys outlooks towards neighbouring period homes and Well Street Common.

This scheme is ideally suited to a motivated self-builder or owner-occupier keen to create a modern home tailored to their own specification. The buyer will be responsible for an estimated £65,000 Section 106 (affordable housing) contribution, payable upon commencement of works. The plot has been cleared in preparation for development, and a party wall agreement with the adjoining property is already in place.

Tucked away on a peaceful residential turning that opens directly onto Well Street Common, the location is moments from the amenities of Victoria Park Village. The area is home to a variety of independent retailers and eateries, including The Ginger Pig, Jonathan Norris, Pophams, Okko and The Empress of India. The open green spaces of Victoria Park, with its boating lake, popular weekend food market and canal-side walks, are just a short stroll away.
