These homes will be double the size of current Darwin House bedsits, offering high-quality, energy-efficient apartments.
Darwin House is a residential development project located at 104 Grosvenor Road, Pimlico, London SW1. Work is due to finish in July 2026 and will replace the existing 1980s Darwin House, the former Balmoral Castle Public House, and 23 garages. Under the new development will be two buildings that have a total of 52 affordable residential units.
Located in the desirable location of Pimlico, in the City of Westminster, the development is positioned near the River Thames. Pimlico's picturesque streets and historic character are complemented by excellent transport links into central London, allowing residents the best of both worlds, a thriving local neighbourhood with convenient access to an area of the capital with a unique identity.
The development consists of two blocks:
Blok A: 34 units of community-supported social rented housing in a 7-storey building
Block B: A 5-story building with 18 units for one-bedroom intermediate rented housing.
The developments are designed to offer new, high-specification homes designed for the local community.
This development addresses local needs with well-considered homes for affordable living. The site will be reimagined to include a modern, working space that revitalizes the community, as they replace antiquated structures such as the 1980s Darwin House and the Balmoral Castle Public House.
Darwin House embodies Westminster's commitment to housing renewal, marrying modern design with affordability. Nestled within Pimlico, the development's strategic location guarantees that residents will have convenient access to central London, whilst also enjoying the tranquillity of a community-driven residential area.
