DEVELOPMENT OF ST GEORGE’S COURT
CNM Estates is updating on the proposals for the revitalisation of 4 St George’s Court.
Planning permission was granted to repurpose the building into ground floor pub, retail kiosks and entrance, two floors of high grade Serviced Offices in support of small and mid-sized businesses & an additional 5 floors accommodating 70 Serviced Apartments.
The granted permission incorporates significant improvements to St George’s Square and adjoining public realm. These improvements came about as a result of significant input from the public and various resident associations.
Due to re-analysis of the structural approach it is now possible to add a further 3 storeys to the building as depicted in the picture, showing the granted permission and new proposal.
All ground floor and public realm benefits are maintained and the concept design and principles of the approved scheme will be extended to the additional three floors.
WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR VIEWS
To help you understand the plans further, we have produced a consultation pack that sets out our proposals for the site, which we will present during a live webinar at 6.30pm on Thursday 13th February, 2025 and which will be published on our website on Friday 14th February 2025.

Once you have had the opportunity to read through the pack, we would welcome your comments and feedback via our online feedback form.
CNM Estates has been proudly supporting the Kingston Regatta as main sponsor for over 10 years.
The event is ‘the jewel in the crown' of amateur rowing on the River Thames. Held annually since 1857 the family event attracts thousands of spectators to watch over 500 races of an international standard.
Last year, CNM Estates raised more than £17,000 at the charity luncheon during the Kingston Regatta, of which £10,952 was donated to the Kingston Rowing Club and £6,200 was given to the Grenfell Tower appeal.
Unfortunately, due to the Covid-19 global pandemic, British Rowing has extended the cancellation of all rowing competitions until 31st July. This means that sadly the 2020 event has been cancelled for July 2020.
For the future, the Kingston Regatta Committee and organisation is in good health and Kingston Regatta will be back in July 2021 offering a full programme over 2 days following Henley on 10th and 11th July 2021.
CNM look forward to supporting the event once again next year.
As founding sponsors of the Rose Theatre Kingston, CNM Estates has been supporting this vibrant and unique cultural community facility in Kingston upon Thames for over a decade. Nearly a million people have watched over 580 shows at the Rose Theatre since it opened, with many productions featuring some of the country's leading actors, producers and directors. Since 2013, we have been in partnership with the Rose Theatre to sponsor the Christmas production each year. Productions have included adaptations of classics including Treasure Island, A Christmas Carol, The Wind in the Willows and The Snow Queen.

The HUB will provide a creative workplace bringing together different industries and types of social businesses, which will help young companies strive and benefit from a supportive business environment.

In support to the Mayor's Charity, we have also sponsored the Dementia Appeal, to help Kingston Hospital transform dementia care in Kingston and beyond.
This year, we are sponsoring the Kingston Chamber Concerts, a series of 6 chamber music concerts which will take place at The East End Cafe, in the beautifully restored All Saints Church in the center of Kingston upon Thames. The concerts will be performed by professional young musicians who live locally. For more details or for booking, please email directly kingstonchamberconcerts@gmail.com.
