Investment Highlights

  • The building is a 1960s department store comprising approximately 10,533 sq m (113,376 sq ft) GIA
  • The property sits within the wider Staines Conservation Area
  • The building has almost 100% site coverage and up until January 2021 was in use as a Debenhams department store

Executive Summary

This prominent freehold former Debenhams department store occupies a 0.66-acre town-centre site in the heart of Staines-upon-Thames, offering 10,533 sq m (113,376 sq ft) GIA arranged over five floors plus a rear delivery yard, and is offered with vacant possession on behalf of Fixed-Charge Receivers. The property’s scale, footprint (almost 100% site coverage), and strategic position within the Staines Conservation Area and the Spelthorne Emerging Local Plan make it a compelling repositioning or redevelopment opportunity, including mixed-use, residential conversion (Class MA potential), office reconfiguration, or comprehensive new-build schemes—subject to planning. Previous applications indicate the council’s sensitivities, but consultants have highlighted that a robust, well-prepared submission could unlock significant value.
Benefitting from an exceptional location, the building sits directly on the High Street near the Elmsleigh and Two Rivers shopping centres, 500m from Sainsbury’s, 1 km from Staines Station (35 minutes to London Waterloo), 3.5 km from the M25 Junction 13, and within 7.25 km of Heathrow Terminals 4 and 5. The combination of scale, connectivity, vacant possession, and future-use flexibility positions this asset as one of the most substantial town-centre redevelopment opportunities currently available in Surrey.
