TELFORD HOMES STRIKES GOLD IN STRATFORD

Dec 1 2012

Telford Homes has launched the first major tower scheme in central Stratford since the Olympics, and has seen an unprecedented level of sales success as 94 per cent of the development has already sold. Demand for apartments at Stratford Plaza is global, as buyers from the Far East, the Middle East, the UK and wider Europe rush to take a stake in the development.

Stratford Plaza has been proved to be an incredible buying opportunity for investors and occupiers alike. The development is situated on the doorstep of Westfield and Stratford Station. UCL have recently announced a campus relocation to a site adjacent to the development, bringing with it £1 billion investment to accommodation 7,500 students and 2,300 staff.

Stratford is fast establishing itself as the Capital’s new transport hub, as the station is directly linked to 150 underground stations and only one change away from the remainder of the tube network. Access to London’s financial centres is unrivalled, with Stratford only nine minutes from Canary Wharf and 11 minutes from the City. The introduction of Crossrail in 2018 has also been earmarked by many as a future opportunity for residential and commercial growth in the area.

£21 billion private and public investment has transformed Stratford in recent years, resulting in the emerging Stratford City, a fresh, vibrant location with an emphasis on sports, arts, business and leisure. With a further £4 billion to be invested over the next fifteen years, investment in Stratford is set to continue well into the future, as it cements its status as London’s newest residential quarter.

The development itself has been designed to the highest specifications, including innovative floor-to-ceiling glazing, which allows the light – and the enviable views – to flood in. In addition to the spectacular skyline views of the city, other features include a roof terrace, stylish kitchen units from London designer Urban Myth and a private winter-garden for all apartments. Residents also benefit from a 24 hour concierge service and two year 24/7 emergency cover.

David Campbell, Group Sales & Marketing Director, Telford Homes, commented:

“We have had exceptionally high interest for apartments in Stratford Plaza. Few developments in London can match its location, as it puts work, leisure and London’s world class universities within easy reach of its residents. To date, buyers have responded well to the fact that unlike many regeneration areas, all of the transport and commercial infrastructure is already in place and was thoroughly tested during the Olympics, passing with flying colours.

“Telford Homes has a history in East London development, and international buyers looking to invest in Stratford ahead of its inevitable growth have been reassured by this.”

Stratford Plaza has a limited number of apartments left for sale.
