Description
Chestertons is delighted to present Ravenslea House, a freehold residential development opportunity in the highly sought-after Nightingale Triangle, SW12, offered to the market at OIEO £1.8 million.Extending to approximately 3,138 sq. ft. GIA, the site benefits from planning permission (ref. 2025/3434) for the redevelopment of the existing property to provide five apartments.
A further planning application (ref. 2026/2701) has been submitted to refine the approved scheme, proposing five larger, better-configured apartments, including three three-bedroom units. An incoming purchaser will therefore benefit from an established planning consent, alongside the potential to deliver an enhanced scheme, subject to approval of the pending application.
With an anticipated gross development value of approximately £3.55 million to £4 million, depending on the scheme delivered, Ravenslea House presents an attractive opportunity for developers seeking a residential development project in an established South West London location.
Situated in the heart of the highly desirable Nightingale Triangle, Ravenslea House occupies a sought-after position in South West London, close to the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of Bellevue Road and the wider amenities of Balham High Road. The open green spaces of Wandsworth Common are nearby, while Wandsworth Common railway station and Balham Underground and railway stations provide convenient connections into Central London. This established residential location provides an attractive setting for a new-build residential development.
Ravenslea House represents an opportunity to acquire a freehold development site with planning permission for five apartments, offering a clear route to delivery alongside the potential to enhance the scheme further.
