New homes in London

Turning to larger scale schemes, in September 2009 Hurford Salvi Carr launched a brand new development of 59 apartments for Nicholas King Homes at Number One EC1, 1 Lamb’s Passage, EC1, immediately north of The Barbican. The collection of studios,
one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments saw the first fully finished units completed in December 2009, with features including comfort-cooling and a porter service. Final completion is due in February 2010. By the end of December 45% of the scheme had
been sold. Close by, United House recently achieved prices of £925 per sq ft at Frobisher Crescent in the Barbican centre.

King Homes in leading new home developer in london. Fine out range of new homes in london and london property investment information. Forward-selling to UK purchasers disappeared from the market over the past two years due to falling values and lack of mortgage products for off-plan buyers. With the market widely perceived to have bottomed out in terms of pricing, off-plan london property investments are again being pursued as a marketing strategy for larger blocks. In the second half of 2009 Hurford Salvi Carr was appointed by Telford Homes to co-ordinate international marketing on three schemes at The Saunders Apartments, E3, part of the Merchant’s Quarter development, a new development at Cable Street/The Highway, E1, and Avant-Garde, Bethnal Green Road, E1.

Avant-Garde will be a particularly striking development. This very large site on the south side of Bethnal Green Road was cleared in 2009, is close to the Broadgate office complex and overlooks the East London line which is set to open in 2010. In March 2008, Telford secured permission for 257 apartments in a 25 storey tower, along with 103 social housing units (including 94 social rented and 9 shared ownership units) as well as 37,000 sq ft gross of mixed commercial space.
