Portfolio Update

Picton secures rooftop residential scheme consent

Picton is pleased to confirm it has secured approval, via permitted development rights, to create an additional floor of residential accommodation above offices at 50 Farringdon Road, London EC1.

The consent allows for the creation of a new fourth storey, comprising 13 residential flats and totalling approximately 8,200 sq ft, all with views across the London skyline towards St Paul's Cathedral.

This is the first Class AB Permitted Development application approved by the London Borough of Islington, enabling residential accommodation to be built above existing commercial assets and without the need for a full planning application.

Michael Morris, Chief Executive of Picton, commented:

"This will be the fourth office asset where we have achieved planning permission since 2023 and demonstrates the success of our strategy to create value from alternative uses within our office portfolio. I would like to thank our team and advisors for their efforts in achieving this excellent outcome."
