Beaconsfield Close

The site is formed of three discrete parcels of land (see aerial plan in the Particulars for more information) located along Beaconsfield Close in Chiswick.

It is approximately 0.4 miles to the south east of Gunnersbury Station, which is served by regular Overground trains running between Richmond and Stratford. Chiswick Park Underground Station is situated 0.5 miles to the north east of the site providing access to Central London via the District line. The local bus network is accessible from nearby Wellesley Road and Sutton Court Road.

The immediate locality is mixed use in nature including residential, commercial, industrial and retail properties. In total, the site is approximately 0.202 acres (0.082 ha) in size and comprises rows of garages and hardstanding.



Parcel 1 is bound by Beaconsfield Close and an unnamed road to the north east, south east and south west. Its north western boundary runs alongside the rear garden of an end of terrace house facing Grosvenor Road. Parcel 2 borders the rear garden of a detached property to the north, amenity grassland to the east, a pedestrian pathway to the south and Beaconsfield Close to the west. Parcel 3 abuts an unnamed road to the north, and a block of flats and amenity grassland to the east. A pedestrian pathway and the rear gardens of semi-detached houses fronting onto Harvard Road, sit to the south and west of Parcel 3, respectively.

Planning Statement: The site adjoins the Wellesley Road Conservation Area. The characteristics of the surrounding locality will need to be given due consideration in any design proposal for the site.

Important to note:

• The site is located next to a Conservation Area.
• The site has potential to contain archaeological remains. The Greater London Archaeological Advisory Service should be engaged early in the planning process.
• A number of neighbouring properties are residential and as such would need to be assessed for sunlight and daylight.
• There are public sewers near the site.
• A number of service media apparatus are located near the boundaries of the site.
• Parts of the site are demised to adjoining tenants restricting the development of the site.
• The site does not appear to abut a public highway.
