Description
22 Great James Street, originally built in the early 1700s of traditional brick construction, comprises a total of 2,101 sq ft NIA arranged over basement, ground and three upper levels. The building has been excellently preserved and retains much of the original period features throughout. The front façade of the building presents excellently, with well-maintained brickwork and sash windows, and is set comfortably back from the road, creating a sense of privacy which is highly desirable for residential users.
The property has one key point of access from the front, facing out onto the corner of Great James and Northington Street, and is served by a single stair core running from the basement to the third floor.
Location
The property is located at the northern end of Great James Street, where it meets Northington Street. Great James Street forms part of the Bloomsbury Conservation Area, and subsequently has been excellently preserved, with elegant Georgian townhouses lining the street.
The property faces east onto a leafy pedestrianised cut-through, connecting Great James Street to Rugby Street, home to the popular Rugby Tavern. Neighbouring this is Lamb’s Conduit, home to some of London’s distinguished independent restaurants and boutiques, each with its own acclaimed reputation. Whilst being situated in a tranquil setting, the central location boasts strong transport links, with Russell Square, Holborn and Chancery Lane Underground stations all within approximately 10-minutes’ walk.
Proposed Scheme
Planning consent to change the use of the property from commercial (Class E) to a dwelling house (Class C3) granted subject to S106 payments. The planning permission also allows for the demolition and reconstruction of the rear extension of the ground and first floors and remains subject to the approval of Camden Council and satisfaction of any conditions imposed therein. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries directly with the local planning authority.
Great James Street has a well-established precedent for the conversion of commercial office space into residential use, with numerous properties already successfully transformed. The peaceful character of the street makes for an excellent living environment, especially at the northern end of the street where no. 22 is located, away from the busier thoroughfare of Theobalds Road.
A scheme has been prepared to deliver a single dwelling. Floor plans are provided overleaf for reference.
