Londonewcastle and Royal London Asset Management (RLAM), a leading investment management company, have submitted a planning application for a high-quality, residential-led mixed use development on Fulham Riverside.
The prime 2.5 acre riverside site is situated between Hurlingham Park and the Harbour Club and the proposed 500,000 sq.ft development will comprise 242 residential units set around a central landscaped garden. The development will also deliver improved public access to the river, 35,000 sq.ft of retail and leisure space along Wandsworth Bridge Road and an improved riverside walk.
David Barnett, CEO of Londonewcastle commented:
“Hurlingham Retail Park is a fantastic opportunity to create a new destination riverside address at the gateway to the borough of Hammersmith and Fulham with new homes that will feature a spectacular elevated resident’s garden at its centre and improved public spaces and amenities.”
The scheme is designed by respected, award-winning architects Hopkins, who have a consistent track record for creating significant British buildings, including recently, the Olympic Velodrome and the UCLH Macmillan Cancer Centre.
Tom Stuart-Smith Landscape Design has been appointed as Landscape Architects across the development. A three times ‘Best in Show’ winner at Chelsea who is known for gardens that combine naturalism and modernity and who The Daily Telegraph described in 2012 as,“ The most influential, taste-forming garden designer in Britain today.”
Drew Watkins, Senior Fund Manager at Royal London Asset Management, added:
“Having owned the existing property for many years, Royal London Asset Management is excited by the opportunity that has been presented to deliver a high quality development as part of the wider plans for the regeneration of the riverside. To achieve this we have assembled a team of specialist consultants whose focus is on high-end residential development projects within London. In co-operation with the Planning Authority, the team has designed a truly first class project that will enhance the locality, improve access to the river and appeal to buyers and visitors alike.”
