Marketability assessments
Wandsworth Council recently approved modifications to a business centre development, reducing planned flexible office space after the original basement was deemed unsuitable for its designated uses.
In April 2026, Wandsworth Council's Planning Applications Committee approved modifications to the Ransomes Dock Business Centre, located at 35-37 Parkgate Road, SW11 4NP. The decision reduced the floorspace allocated for flexible office and gallery use, following discussions where the original basement space was deemed unsuitable for its designated purposes.
The approved changes saw a net decrease of 248 sqm, reducing the flexible office and gallery area from 396 sqm to 148 sqm. This adjustment reflects considerations about the potential for a property or development to be successfully sold or leased, which is the focus of marketability assessments.
