The Maida Vale multiplier (1.12×) reflects local labour, scaffolding logistics and finish expectations.
What's the planning process for a new build in Maida Vale?
Always full planning permission via City of Westminster. Maida Vale Conservation Area covers the bulk of W9. Article 4 directions limit some PD rights on key streets. Most Maida Vale new builds start with a Pre-Application (£500–£2,500) to test feasibility, then a full planning submission running 13–18 weeks. Conservation areas, Article 4 directions and proximity to listed buildings add scrutiny.
What kind of plot makes sense in Maida Vale?
Edwardian mansion blocks, red-brick terraces, and a handful of grand villas on the canal. Plot types that come up most often in W9: replacement of an existing house (demolish + rebuild), side-garden infills on corner plots, and occasional backland sites accessed via a private drive. Plot acquisition prices in Maida Vale are part of the equation — we help test feasibility before you commit to a purchase.
How long does a Maida Vale new build take from purchase to keys?
Allow 6–12 months for design and planning (longer in conservation-sensitive parts of Maida Vale), then 12–18 months on site for a single dwelling, 18–24 months for a large new build, and 24–36 months for multi-unit schemes. Our build programme is fixed in the contract.
How much is CIL in Maida Vale?
Community Infrastructure Levy varies by London borough and zone, typically £20–£500 per m² of net additional floorspace. City of Westminster publishes its current CIL rates online; we calculate your specific liability at the planning-application stage. Section 106 affordable housing or infrastructure contributions may apply on larger schemes.
