UK: GMG Real Estate is offering a forward funding opportunity on a fully consented hotel, office and residential development in Farringdon with a GDV of £93.5 million.
Stella, Farringdon is located just off Clerkenwell Road. The scheme, designed by Piercy & Company Architects, will have a gross internal area of 73,967 square feet. Practical completion of the office accommodation is estimated for Q4 2021, followed by the hotel and residential elements in Q2 2022. Savills is advising GMG Real Estate.
“This is a rare opportunity to acquire the part pre-let freehold interest of a well-balanced mixed-use scheme close to a major transportation hub, with long income security and further upside through a strong office occupational backdrop. The surrounding area is one of London’s newest contemporary cultural, arts and educational destinations, which will add to the diversity and excitement already experienced by tourists and residents alike through to the local office occupiers,” said Richard Dawes, director in the hotel investment team at Savills.
Simon Banks of GMG Real Estate, said: “The scheme provides an outstanding blend of best in class workspace, residential accommodation and a unique hospitality offering set in Farringdon, a global hub of creative industry. We are delighted to be working alongside Ruby to deliver their latest London hotel, a perfect branding fit.”
