The Belvedere
Royal Tunbridge Wells
This prime development site had remained vacant for over 15 years. It is situated in a highly sustainable location only 50m from Royal Tunbridge Wells mainline station and 5 minutes’ walk from the town’s principal shopping area. It is ideally suited for a major residential led mixed-use development.
Leveraging off the site’s chequered planning history and working in collaboration with the Local Authority, a detailed planning consent was obtained for 108 premium quality apartments with zero affordable housing provision, a 3-screen boutique cinema that was pre-let to Everyman Cinemas, 9 retail units, 4 restaurant units and a medical centre.
Strong developer-operator demand was identified for a rental based retirement development that led to the site being sold with the benefit of a detailed planning consent to specialist retirement living developer-operator, Elysian Residences.
“Following a chequered planning history, a viable detailed planning consent was secured on this sustainable prime town centre site that has remained derelict for over a decade.”
