Construction completed June 2024. Marketing launch imminent.
Shepherds Bush in West London has experienced excellent growth in the recent past and due to our existing holdings in the locality we have been able to spot this trend and make further residential acquisitions with a view to refurbishment and planning gains. The planned redevelopment of Shepherds Bush market will further improve this up and coming location which is well served for public transport and strategically located with easy access to both the West End, Heathrow and local amenities. These include Westfield London, the new John Lewis and the BBC redevelopment area. The wider area will also benefit from the emerging regeneration of the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation to the North.
Boropex are currently working on a number of refurbishments and planning projects on and around Goldhawk Road.
Examples include a studio apartment in run down condition. We were able to acquire the property at a competitive price level thanks to our ability to proceed quickly. The property offered a fantastic opportunity to add value through planning and development. Shortly after completion, we obtained planning permission to almost double the size of the property, converting the studio into a 2 bedroom apartment.
The project was completed in 2017.
The site comprises an existing retail and residential building and adjacent development site. Planning consent has been granted for a 9 unit scheme on the vacant site, consisting of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, construction is due to commence in Q4 2024.
