Bespoke finance to restore London’s historic 15 Old Bailey
The Challenge
A leading property business founded by entrepreneur Alex Shamas and joint venture partner Boscalt Hospitality needed an experienced partner to support its next project: converting one of London’s most famous landmarks.
Opportunity & Outcomes
Due to our successful track record across both property development and hotel trading deals, we were able to tailor a facility, totalling £34.3m, enabling the borrower to convert 15 Old Bailey from an office building into a new luxury hotel, along with two restaurants and a bar.
The property will become the highlight in this already recognised area of London.
Having secured planning permission, we have searched for the right funding partners for this project and we are pleased to have selected OakNorth.
