ASK Partners has provided a £78m senior loan to Development Capital London Ltd, a joint venture partnership between prime property development company Bodker & Co. and architectural and design studio Echlin.
The loan refinances the original acquisition and planning facility provided by ASK in 2023 and will fund the delivery of six luxury family houses on Lansdowne Walk, in central London’s area of Notting Hill.
Planning consent for the luxury specification scheme was achieved in May 2025.
Construction has recently begun, with completion expected in 2028.
The project will deliver six properties of between 5,000 and 8,000 sq. ft., just a few minutes’ walk from Holland Park tube station.
Chris Bodker, founder of Bodker & Co. said: “We are delighted to have secured new funding from ASK to take this project forward, it is a pleasure to work with a lender with the flexibility to back us from acquisition and planning, through to delivery.
“This continued collaboration reflects our shared commitment to quality and long-term value creation in prime London locations.”
Doug King, COO and director of ASK Partners, said: “We are very pleased to continue our working partnership with Development Capital London, an experienced and highly-credible sponsor with strong capital backing.
“We see this as a robust opportunity to support a prime residential project in a location which we believe will remain attractive to investors despite challenging market conditions.
“This loan also takes ASK’s total lending beyond £2bn; a milestone we’re extremely proud to have achieved in a demanding market, where we have continued to identify and back high-quality opportunities that resonate with our investor base.”
