Vabel has secured planning consent for revised plans for a residential scheme at 28-34 Queensway in London.
The London-based developer acquired the site from Bourne Capital in spring 2023 and has amended the original consent to “improve the quality and viability” of the development.
The scheme, which forms part of the Queensway Estate Redevelopment Plan by Bourne Capital and the wider regeneration masterplan for the area, will offer 27 private apartments and three affordable homes. The revised proposals ensure that all homes have access to external amenity space, including a new landscaped communal residents’ garden.
The scheme will also deliver 251 sq m of retail at ground level, with the previously consented two large retail units replaced by three smaller retail units and an improved frontage inspired by traditional Victorian shopfronts.
Jeremy Spencer, creative director and co-founder of Vabel, said: “The revisions to the Queensway application are emblematic of the Vabel approach to design and development. It’s our mission to revolutionise the quality of new build homes and how they’re conceptualised, designed and built. This revised scheme means that those who ultimately call this place home will enjoy spacious homes, fantastic daylight/sunlight, access to outdoor space, and retail frontage at ground level that evokes a sense of London’s past glory.
“With significant redevelopment ongoing at The Whiteley, and the redevelopment of Queensway Parade, Queensway is re-energising its reputation as a vibrant, multi-faceted community. We’re so thrilled to be an important part of that story, and we’re delighted to receive such positive feedback from Westminster about our revised proposals.”
Daniel Baliti, managing director and co-founder of Vabel, added: “This is the most substantial prime site we have worked on in terms of scale and number of units and sets the path for our future direction. It is an enormous privilege to be a part of the Queensway regeneration alongside other notable industry names all motivated to bring the entire neighbourhood up. As we approach 15 years’ experience of delivering notable projects across London with a steady track record of both small scale and larger developments, and some incredible testimonials along the way, we are excited to bring our experience and learnings to this exciting address.”
The project is scheduled to complete by Q4 2025. Sales will be managed by Savills.
