Fifth State has submitted an environmental impact assessment for the Jewson site on Ilderton Wharf, SE15, proposing a 477-bed student accommodation scheme.
The site owned by Twenty Twenty Ilderton Wharf and SGBD Property had previously received consent for three towers of nine, 23 and 25 storeys, providing 163 homes. The plans also incorporated a new facility for Jewson designed to meet the builders merchant’s changing operational requirements.
Fifth State, in partnership with Melrose Capital and Amazon Capital, proposes to provide the student housing alongside 80 affordable homes, in three towers of 27, 13 and 10 storeys.
Plans also include 23,000 sq ft of light industrial space, but Jewson will no longer occupy the proposed scheme.
The joint venture led by developer Fifth State will acquire the 0.8-acre site subject to planning consent.
