Please Note

The building does not currently have a valid EWS1 form, however the managing agent has advised on 14th April 2026 that it is currently progressing through a remediation scheme under the Government’s Cladding Safety Scheme. The building has been accepted into the fund, and all eligible façade remediation works will be covered, meaning leaseholders will not be responsible for these costs. The project is currently at the final pre-submission stage, with the Gateway 2 application pending receipt of final design information and sign-offs before submission to the Building Safety Regulator, with submission anticipated shortly. The proposed remediation works are intended to ensure the building achieves a compliant outcome, with the aim of obtaining an EWS1 rating of B1 or higher upon completion. Potential buyers needing to obtain a mortgage should conduct their own due diligence with a mortgage broker or lender.
