388 Bath Road, Harmondsworth, Heathrow, UB7 0DH

The property comprises a detached two-storey building of traditional brick construction beneath a pitched roof, together with a detached rear boiler house. Originally built as a self-contained office building, it has for many years been used as a restaurant.

The ground floor provides restaurant, kitchen and ancillary accommodation, with an open floorplate and central core at first floor. The second floor, within the roof, currently houses plant.

The site extends to approximately 0.292 acres, with dual frontage to the A4 and Hatch Lane and a forecourt that could provide parking for circa. 25-30 cars.

The property occupies a prominent corner position on the A4 Bath Road at its junction with Hatch Lane, Harmondsworth, immediately to the north-west of Heathrow Airport.

The A4 provides direct access to Central London to the east and the M25 to the west, with the M4 (Junction 4) approximately 2 miles away. Heathrow Terminal 5 is within 1.5 miles, and West Drayton station (Elizabeth line) is approximately 2.5 miles to the north.

We understand that planning permission was granted on 19 November 2003 under reference 6117/APP/2002/2872 for a change of use from Class B1 (Office) to Class A3 (Restaurant), together with alterations to the external appearance and the installation of an extractor duct.

Both the former Class B1 and Class A3 uses now fall within Class E, following the changes to the Use Classes Order on 1 September 2020. Subject to the conditions attached to that permission, the property may therefore lend itself to a range of Class E uses, including offices, medical and health services, a day nursery or crèche, indoor fitness and retail.

Uses falling outside Class E, such as a place of worship, a school, a hotel or a drive through, would require planning permission.
The decision notice is not presently available on the Council's online register. Applicants must make their own enquiries of the London Borough of Hillingdon and satisfy themselves as to the planning position and the suitability of the property for their intended use.

We understand the property lies within the area identified in land referencing undertaken in connection with the proposed third runway at Heathrow. No Development Consent Order has been submitted. Applicants should make their own enquiries.
