LandDescription
A rear-site development opportunity off Brecknock Road, currently comprising space most recently used as a recording studio and storage. Planning was granted for a contemporary two-storey home of approximately 830 sq ft, with two double bedrooms, a study, two bathrooms and an open-plan first-floor living area with kitchen. The proposed design also includes a private terrace, green roof, bin storage and cycle parking. Buyers should confirm the current status and details of the planning permission with the London Borough of Camden.
The site is reached by a secluded driveway serving two buildings. Kentish Town and Tufnell Park stations are both described as less than a 15-minute walk away, with bus routes providing connections to Camden, King's Cross, Euston and central London. The property is marketed by Drivers & Norris.

Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
51out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
The £350,000 asking price is a standout entry point: £422 per sq ft, around 45% below the local average. The existing building is derelict and heavily cluttered, with damaged finishes and debris inside and out, so this is a substantial transformation rather than a cosmetic update. The listing says planning was granted for a two-storey, approximately 830 sq ft home with a study, private terrace and green roof; check the permission’s current status and conditions before proceeding. The secluded driveway and the chance to create a distinctive home in this location give the project real appeal, although the overall opportunity remains weak because the scale of the works and renovation economics are uncertain.
Key opportunities
- Create the proposed two-storey home, using the planned 28ft open-plan living space and study to shape a distinctive layout.
- Bring the proposed private terrace and green roof to life, with scope to turn the debris-strewn external area into usable outdoor space.
- Acquire at a markedly low asking price per square foot for the local market, with secluded driveway access adding to the site’s character.
Key risks
- The derelict, cluttered interior, damaged or incomplete finishes and debris outside point to a full-gut conversion programme, not a cosmetic refresh; budget and timing will need careful assessment.
- The roof structure is not fully visible, and the exterior shows deterioration, so the building’s condition needs thorough investigation.
- The planning permission’s current status and conditions should be verified with Camden before relying on the proposed scheme.
