Edinburgh lender advances £15.5m for Fulham Town Hall project

Fulham Town Hall

Edinburgh-based Unbranded Finance, the UK-based non-bank real estate lender, has advanced a new £15.5 million senior loan facility to Ziser London to assist with delivering the developer’s flagship redevelopment of the former Fulham Town Hall, located directly opposite Fulham Broadway station in London.

The freehold historic Grade II listed building was originally constructed in 1890 and benefits from planning permission and listed building consent to deliver a new 65,000 sq ft hospitality venue comprising a hotel, various food and beverage concepts including bar, restaurant, bakery and café, wellness and large-scale events spaces, and also featuring a private members club workspace.

The project will bring forward Ziser London’s vision to deliver a unique venue for West London providing unmatched facilities utilising the building’s impressive volume and character whilst retaining significant period features.



Oliver Holt, Co-Founder of Unbranded Finance commented: “We are delighted to support Guy Ziser and his team on this fantastic project which fits extremely well with our strong appetite to provide financing for best-in-class borrowers secured against prime assets.  Guy’s vision for this venue is ambitious and creative whilst respecting the property’s rich heritage, and we are very much looking forward to helping him bring it to fruition. We are also grateful to the team at BBS Capital for the kind introduction.”

Guy Ziser, Managing Director of Ziser London commented: “A unique project such as Fulham Town Hall required a lender who could develop a thorough understanding of the property and our plans for it using a practical approach, which is what the team at Unbranded were quickly able to deliver. We look forward to working together to bring our Arts community led vision for the site to life, creating something truly special.”

Ziser London was represented in the transaction by BBS Capital and NWL Solicitors, and Unbranded Finance was advised by Fieldfisher and Savills.
