Beltane Asset Management has received planning consent from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea for the redevelopment of Newcombe House in Notting Hill Gate, London.
The project, designed by Squire & Partners, involves the refurbishment and extension of an existing 1950s built 12-storey office tower and the introduction of two new buildings and public realm.
The redevelopment of the tower will upgrade the existing workspace through the extension of the floor plate, addition of two new floors and the introduction of balconies and a roof terrace.
A six-storey building on Kensington Church Street will offer large retail space on the ground floor and additional workspace on the upper floors, and a eight-storey building will provide affordable housing and a medical centre, designed in collaboration with the NHS.
Duncan Roe, partner at Beltane Asset Management, said: “Notting Hill Gate has amazing potential to create best-in-class office and retail accommodation right in the heart of a vibrant and well-connected district centre. Our ambition is to further strengthen and enhance Notting Hill Gate with a new commercial hub which will bring a range of local economic and social benefits.”
Henry Squire, partner at Squire & Partners, added: “We are delighted to bring forward a vision that creates a new, extremely high-quality, distinctive campus of buildings and public realm that will complete the regeneration of Notting Hill Gate and be a very positive addition for years to come.”
