Somers Crescent, London, W2 2

A rare opportunity to acquire the freehold interest in a block of five lockup garages, situated outside the congestion charging zone, to the rear of Somers Crescent, London W2. The garages are securely accessed via gated entry through Devonport, a neighbouring residential development, providing a high level of security and privacy.

The existing garages would benefit from refurbishment and modernisation or alternatively could be demolished and replaced with a more contemporary structure, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The vendor believes there may be scope to remove the internal dividing walls to create a larger, open plan garage space if preferred, while retaining the surrounding rear and side wall structures, subject to structural advice, however this has not been verified.

The garages are well positioned just outside the Congestion Charge zone and within walking distance of Hyde Park, Marylebone and Mayfair. Excellent transport links are nearby, with Paddington Station providing access to the Elizabeth Line, Heathrow Express and mainline services.
