Grove Road, Bow, E3

A unique double-fronted period terraced house located in a parade of shops on Grove Road. This property is being sold with the benefit of planning permission (LBTH Ref number: PA/19/00062) for a mansard roof extension and the creation of 6 en-suite rooms, a spacious open plan lounge and kitchen and a ground floor WC.

This planning design was influenced by the properties plot and location, being around the corner from Queen Mary University of London, which is a member of The Russell Group of 24 UK universities that are world class research intensive universities.

Subsequently there is high demand for good quality accommodation for students of all levels in the area. Based on rents achieved this year for inclusive letting deals for en-suite rooms we project that a gross rental income of around £80,000 per annum will be achievable.

We recommend that any interested buyers make professional inquiries into Tower Hamlets property licensing. We can refer a specialist.
