Proposal 

Considering the property’s prime residential location, just 100m from 

Bridgewater Place and Granary Wharf, bordering the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, 

extensive surrounding amenities and close proximity to Leeds City Centre, 

the property would be ideal for residential development. 

Bridgewater Place and Granary Wharf are undoubtedly the city’s two most desirable residential 

developments and currently command some of the highest apartment sales rates within the city. 

Granary Wharf House is situated directly in between these two schemes and would undoubtedly 

command similarly high prices if the property is developed to provide a high quality product. 


< >

Amenities 

Granary Wharf comprises a mixed use 

development immediately to the south 

of the River Aire and adjacent to the new 

Bridgewater Place office development 

comprising office, residential and retail space. 

Nearby office occupiers include Eversheds, 

KPMG, Rensburg, BMB Group, LHF Healthplan, 

Asda Walmart and BT. 

There are a plethora of bars and restaurants on 

your doorstep.

Granary Wharf House is prominently positioned at 

the entrance to the well established Granary Wharf 

Development. The scheme is located adjacent to the 

Leeds City Centre Railway Station on the banks of 

the River Aire to the South of the City Centre. 

Granary Wharf is an established, business, leisure and 

residential location and is home to a number of Leeds’ 

major office occupiers including; Zurich, Imagination 

Technologies & Rensberg. The South Bank of the City 

over recent years has seen major investment in the 

location and schemes like Bridgwater Place, City Walk 

& The Round Foundry have helped transform this part 

of the City Centre into a vibrant and busy place to work 

& live. The location is set to be elevated further with 

the introduction of a new Southern entrance to the 

Railway Station which will provide direct access from 

Granary Wharf into the Railway Station.

Planning 

Currently Granary Wharf House has planning

permission) be suitable for conversion to 

a number of uses to include; residential, 

hotel, licensed & leisure and retail. A planning

commercial to residential uses without the

The new permitted development rights will 

allow change of use from offices (B1(a)) to 

residential (C3), subject to a prior approval 

process. The proposals will come into force in 

Spring 2013 and run for a trial period of three 

years.
