Town Planning
The Property falls within the jurisdiction of the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
The buildings are not statutorily Listed, but are located within the Edwards Square/Scarsdale & Abingdon Conservation Area.
Under the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987:
- The residential use is classified class C3(a). Residential uses are protected across the Borough under current and emerging policy.
- The car showroom accommodation is classified class ‘Sui Generis’, meaning ‘of its own kind’. There is no current or emerging policy that exists to protect a sui generis car showroom.
Further information relating to relevant planning policy can be found on the dedicated project dataroom.
Redevelopment Potential
It may be possible to achieve a change of use of the car showroom, the most appropriate replacement use is likely to be residential, given the nature of the mews in its majority.
The roof line of the mews is varied and many properties already benefit from mansard roof extensions. Similar extensions could be considered for this property, although careful consideration would have to be given to the impact of any proposed extension upon the character and appearance of the mews and upon the residential amenity (in particular daylight and sunlight levels) to surrounding properties.
Providing they meet all the relevant parameters as set out under policy CL7 the Borough will allow single storey basement extensions to buildings, ‘in principle’.
Any potential change of use, enhancement or re-development of the Property will be subject to the necessary consents.
Services
The Property is connected to mains water, gas and drainage, although these have not been tested. It will be the responsibility of the purchaser to determine whether the current supplies are adequate for their proposed use of the Property following purchase.
EPCs
EPC ratings are D for the commercial space and C - G for the residential. Further information is available on the dedicated dataroom.
Taxation
The Property is not elected for VAT.
Method of Sale
The Property is to be sold by way of Informal tender (unless sold prior). A deadline for offers will be provided in due course.
Vacant Possession
The car showroom and garage will become vacant in September 2019 and there is no intention to renew the current lease. Some of the residential units let on AST agreements are expected to become vacant during the course of this year.
Viewings
Inspections of the Property are strictly by appointment only, through the Vendor’s Selling Agent, Savills.

A dedicated project data room has been set up and interested parties are able to register at: https://sites.savills.com/radleymews
