More than 800 homes could be coming to Croydon, if the Council approves the plans.

On Thursday (December 5) the councillors of Croydon Council’s Planning Committee will come together to discuss a plan submitted by One Lansdowne to build two large buildings containing 806 residential units.

The two buildings, named Building A and Building B, will be situated at 1-5 Lansdowne Road and 30-32 Wellesley Road, respectively.

Building A will have 46 residential floors and 50 storeys while Building B will have 29 residential floors and 31 storeys.

The two buildings will be connected by basements, where residents can park their bikes and store rubbish.

There will be a total of 1,135 cycle parking spaces, including 809 two-tier spaces, 262 Sheffield stands, and 64 larger bike parking spaces.

For cars, there will be 25 spaces reserved for Blue Badge holders.

The area has a high Public Transport Accessibility Level (PTAL) rating of 6b, and the site is conveniently close to East Croydon station.

Building A will feature balconies on all four corners of every second floor, while Building B will have balconies on every third floor, also on all four corners.

Building A will have 92 balconies in total, and Building B will have 40.

The flats will include 114 studios, 392 one-bedroom flats for two people, 208 two-bedroom flats for four people, and 92 three-bedroom flats for five people.

The development will offer communal spaces for residents at the ground floor, mezzanine, and roof levels.

These will include co-working spaces, lounges, gyms, and children’s play areas.

The planners have also noted that this development is expected to create 613 jobs annually during construction, bringing economic benefits to Croydon.

The plan to redevelop this site has been on the public register since 2023, and despite the large scale of the project, only four people have submitted objections to the plan.

The applicant and developers will present their proposals to the councillors on Thursday and members of the public are also invited to show their support or raise any objections.

Croydon Council will make a decision by Thursday, December 12, and, if approved, construction will begin in the New Year.
