Tottenham is undergoing one of North London’s most ambitious regeneration programmes. According to the Tottenham Physical Development Framework, the area is on track to deliver 10,000 new homes, 5,000 jobs, and nearly 1 million sq ft of commercial and employment space by 2025.
The transformation is supported by landmark projects such as the Northumberland Development Project, which will support 3,500 jobs and inject around £293 million annually into the local economy.
At PSS Commercial, we’re seeing a surge in demand for commercial units in Tottenham—especially along Tottenham High Road and within mixed-use regeneration zones such as Tottenham Hale and Seven Sisters.
Regeneration Driving Demand
- Tottenham Hale Regeneration Project: New transport interchange, over 3,000 new homes, retail and leisure space
- High Road West Scheme: Redevelopment around White Hart Lane, delivering commercial, residential and cultural uses
- Broadwater Farm and Bruce Grove improvements: Public realm upgrades and housing renewal
These projects are attracting retail, creative, and service-sector occupiers looking for affordable units with future upside.
Commercial Stock That Suits a Modern Mix
- Flexible ground-floor units in mixed-use developments
- High street retail along Tottenham High Road and Seven Sisters Road
- Light industrial space transitioning to creative and food production use
The tenant mix is evolving, with interest from:
- Cafés, independent grocers, and bakeries
- Barbershops, beauty studios, and healthcare services
- Local creative businesses seeking flexible workshops
With rising footfall and new residents moving in, Tottenham retail property offers increasing long-term value for landlords.
Tottenham High Road: An Investment Priority
Tottenham High Road is a key commercial corridor that’s benefiting from ongoing enhancements, including wider pavements, new lighting, and improved shopfront grants.
- High visibility for commercial premises
- Strong community footfall and cultural presence
- Steady demand for small to mid-sized Class E units
According to the GLA, commercial rents in this corridor have increased by 8% year-on-year in 2025, outpacing other parts of Enfield and Haringey.
What Landlords Should Know in 2025
- EPC compliance is a growing concern—ensure your unit meets at least a C rating to attract tenants
- Units near transit hubs or main streets let fastest—especially those with extraction, storage, or outdoor space
- Mixed-use landlords should consider retail-to-office or workshop conversions to match shifting tenant demand
PSS Commercial has worked with several landlords in Tottenham to reposition older stock with minimal capex. For example, one landlord near Seven Sisters saw a 40% reduction in vacancy time after updating their unit to meet EPC C and refreshing the frontage.
Tottenham’s Future: Local Growth, Long-Term Value
With regeneration accelerating and a new wave of residents and entrepreneurs entering the area, Tottenham presents a rare blend of affordability, infrastructure, and potential capital growth. According to CBRE’s 2025 Submarket Report, average yields in N17 have risen to 5.4%, driven by SME tenant demand and limited supply.
“Tottenham is now one of North London’s fastest-growing property markets—thanks to major regeneration, transport links, and rising demand.”
Whether you’re letting, buying, or repositioning a unit, now is the time to act.
