Deptford office block to be turned into flats under new plan

Plans are in to convert a recently built office block on Arklow Road into flats.

The block is alongside a residential block in the same development. The idea is to convert into 25 flats.

15 flats were previously approved in another conversion plan. Despite these plans a number of businesses operate at the site.




Astra House is located at 25-27 Arklow Road, which has seen a large number of new homes built in recent years. A tower is currently under construction nearby as part of the 336 home Anthology development.

Another plan sees a Victorian building converted to housing, which I covered in June.

Lewisham Council also plans to construct 31 flats down the road in a temporary building along the lines of a block in Ladywell.
