Summary - Leon Quarter, Croydon, Surrey CR0 1QR CR0 1QR
1 bed 1 bath Residential Development
Large-scale mixed-use scheme near East Croydon station, primed for delivery.
Freehold 2.3-acre site with detailed planning consent
Leon Quarter is a 2.3-acre freehold development site in central Croydon with detailed planning consent for 357 apartments and 1,224 sq m of commercial space. The consent includes an NMA for a second staircase, reducing a common construction risk and improving core access. The ground floor is planned as a new High Street hub with restaurants, shops and a public square, creating active frontage and footfall for the commercial units.
The site is a short walk from East Croydon Station with direct trains to London Victoria in around 15 minutes and good links to London Bridge — a clear transport advantage for renters and future residents. Leon 1 (adjacent) comprises 236 owner-occupied apartments and the recently converted 21-storey Leon House (263 apartments) provides immediate context and an established residential catchment.
Practical assets include freehold ownership of a large, contiguous plot, off-street parking provision and zero flood risk. Mobile signal and broadband are strong locally, supporting modern residential and commercial uses. The surface car park and hardstanding currently on site provide straightforward groundworks access for phased construction.
Material drawbacks and commercial risks are significant and must be considered: the wider area scores as deprived with a high local crime rate, which may affect rental values, sales velocity and management costs. Tenure details for parts of the site are recorded as unknown and should be clarified prior to exchange. The scale of the scheme and its urban setting will require robust community engagement and potentially further conditions under discharge of planning obligations.
