The Ealing Council Planning Committee has approved a significant mixed-use development at Brook House, 65 Stirling Road, Acton.
This project involves the demolition of the existing building at 65 Stirling Road, Acton, and the construction of a new industrial-led development. The new structure will feature approximately 657 square metres of commercial space on the ground and first floors, alongside 49 residential units on the upper floors, reaching up to 12 storeys.
The development is part of a broader initiative to create a mixed-use area, aligning with Policy E7 of the London Plan. This policy supports the co-location of industrial and residential uses in designated areas. The proposal includes a 24 per cent increase in industrial space, offering modern facilities with flexible configurations to suit various occupants.
In terms of housing, the scheme promises a 35 per cent provision of affordable housing by habitable room, with a tenure split favouring London Affordable Rent. Although slightly below the Reg19 Draft Ealing Local Plan’s objectives, it aligns with current policies. The development will also provide five two-bedroom homes under the London Affordable Rent scheme, enhancing low-cost housing options for families in the borough.
This project is consistent with the South Acton Masterplan, focusing on quality industrial space and public realm improvements.
