摘要

Housebuilder Taylor Wimpey has bought office development Stoke House near Slough for a £17m residential scheme. The housebuilder has bought the site in Stoke Poges from Legal & General Property for close to £5.8m - 45% above its asking price. The period property, which is situated across 5.86 acres of landscaped parkland, has planning consent for conversion into 27 new homes. Stoke House is a blend of Victorian and Georgian architecture, dating back to 1780, with more than 24,000 sq ft of office accommodation spread across the manor house and interconnecting pavilion. Legal & General Property gained planning consent from South Bucks District Council to develop the site into two-to seven-bed dwellings.
