Clifton Slipways, Stuart Road, Gravesend, Kent, DA11

Key Features

  • Consented scheme for 115 apartments
  • Alternative lower-density 78 unit option
  • Prime riverside regeneration location
  • Flexible planning for viable delivery
  • Town centre opportunity area investment

Description

The Stuart Road Block at Clifton Slipways forms part of a major riverside regeneration initiative in central Gravesend. It benefits from a full residential planning consent with potential for revised delivery to align with current market and regulatory requirements.

Currently consented for 115 flats across 12 storeys, the site also has a revised, lower-density 6-storey scheme option (78 flats) to ensure viability. This variant reduces excavation and structural complexity, while retaining the strong locational and architectural benefits of the approved scheme.

The site occupies a strategic corner adjacent to West Street, with vehicular access and services fully considered under the existing planning approval. Cycle parking and amenity integration remain high quality, with the broader masterplan featuring commercial and café space, as well as restoration of the historic pier.

This offering provides a rare opportunity for an incoming developer or investor to acquire a consented scheme with flexibility to tailor delivery, within one of the region's most actively regenerating town centres.
Location

Stuart Road Block sits within the Gravesend Town Centre Opportunity Area, a designated regeneration zone receiving targeted investment by Gravesham Borough Council and private developers.

Local Amenities:

  • Retail, restaurants, and civic services within walking distance
  • Near the Riverside Leisure Complex, cinema, gyms, and pier
  • Adjacent to planned public space and commercial amenity (B1a units and café)
  • Strong catchment for renters, commuters, and owner-occupiers
Gravesend’s affordability and improved infrastructure continue to attract residents priced out of London, supporting strong demand for high-quality new homes.
Planning

The Stuart Road Block forms part of a broader planning consent under reference 20191122, with two formal iterations to date and a proposed third scheme offering delivery flexibility. This planning structure offers an incoming party flexibility to proceed with either the consented density or a reduced, more buildable version — while maintaining affordable housing visibility and zero-rated infrastructure obligations.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
