CHOOSE THE STREET

Start with the plan—not a famous street name.

The street is the first filter. Choose your direction to see what deserves attention and which street guides to open next.

WHAT TO NOTICE ON THE STREET

The street name only gets you to the door.

01

Footfall is not always useful demand

Visit during the hours that matter to your occupier. Daytime visitors do not prove weekday or evening demand.

02

Servicing decides whether the plan works

Deliveries, refuse, exhaust, repairs and fire access often depend on the rear lane and side entrance.

03

Can the upper floor work independently?

A separate stair, privacy, daylight and washroom position affect offices, accommodation and split occupation.

04

Return after dark

Noise, parking, lighting, drop-off and neighbouring activity rarely appear in daytime photographs.

ONE MORE PART OF THE DECISION

A famous street is not always the right street

Start with the occupier

Think about who will use the ground floor and upper floor, at what hours, and how they arrive. Then compare visibility, privacy, servicing and evening conditions.

Keep a second-choice street

A nearby block with easier loading, better rear access or a more suitable tenancy may serve the plan better than the best-known address.

Keep one well-known street and one practical alternative in the search. The second address may offer better access, tenancy or building condition.
