unveiling the

developer Ballymore launches a fresh collection of homes at Goodluck Hope in Leamouth

by Jon Massey

T

here’s something different about the latest launch of properties at Ballymore’s Goodluck Hope scheme. The collection of homes at the development, located on a strip of land where the River Lea meets the Thames, doesn’t feature any apartments. Instead, 13 townhouses along Orchard Place are set to go on sale on August 6.

Work on the properties is expected to be finished by the end of this year, meaning prospective buyers could be in their homes by 2023.

Each house has four floors and includes three bedrooms, a private terrace, a fitted kitchen and a range of living areas on different levels.

They all have ground floor studio spaces that could serve a variety of functions including office, playroom, workspace or gallery.

Ballymore says the properties have been designed with a “refined industrial aesthetic, featuring raw natural materials and touches of signature deep indigo that reflect the maritime heritage” of the area they stand in.

Each of the 13 houses has its own colour of brickwork, drawn from a palette of blues, yellows, greys and pinks.

Goodluck Hope is a development of some 841 homes within walking distance of both Canning Town station and East India DLR. Residents automatically gain access to the scheme’s 1595 Club, which includes an indoor swimming pool, a steam room, a gym, a studio, a private cinema, a business centre and communal gardens.

Townhouse residents will also be able to use the development’s Lantern Room – a 29th floor sky lounge for remote working, socialising or relaxation, with views across London.

“Our vision for Goodluck Hope is to

create a close-knit riverside community with architecturally striking buildings and a best-in-class amenity offering,”said Ballymore sales director Jenny Steen.

“The townhouses are located at the heart of this vision, with high quality finishes and internal spaces set across four floors, designed to evolve with life.”

Goodluck Hope is located within easy commuting distance of Canary Wharf by bike or public transport and borders the creative workspaces of Trinity Buoy Wharf, which is also home to independent prep the Faraday School.

It’s also close to the amenities of London City Island, Canning Town and Republic – a business and education campus.

Prices for the townhouses at Goodluck Hope start at £1,120,000.

n the banks of the Thames, Notting Hill Genesis’ Woolwich Reach is offering Londoners an affordable way to purchase a sought-after home on the river.

The development, which offers the perfect blend of peaceful living and city life, was launched late last year and has already proven a hit with first-time buyers.

A selection of one, two, and three-bedroom apartments are available through shared ownership, a scheme in which first-time buyers purchase a percentage share of a property – from 25% – and pay a subsidised rent on the remainder, enabling them to buy their own home with a lower deposit than if purchasing at full market value.

With fast transport connections into the city and central London, many residents making Woolwich Reach home are professionals, and are looking to put down roots in the area having previously rented in east London.

Woolwich Reach resident Anna said: “At 41, I felt like if I continued renting then I’d never be able to save enough money to buy a property.

“Shared ownership was the perfect solution for me, and the decision was made easy when I saw Woolwich Reach.

“My favourite thing is the view. I have a corner balcony that overlooks both the Royal Victoria Gardens and the river, so I’ve got a perfect picture of the sunrise every morning and the light reflecting off the water in the evening.”

The apartments at Woolwich Reach have been thoughtfully designed with modern living in mind. Open-plan living creates space to work from home, relax

in the evening and socialise with friends at weekends.

The 14-storey development is adjacent to the Royal Victoria Gardens, and all homes feature far-reaching views.

Many of the apartments are dual-aspect, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramas of the river and park, and generous private balconies with ample space for entertaining or relaxing.

Perfect for first-time buyers, the homes have sought-after features such as integrated kitchen appliances, underfloor heating, and residents also enjoy a shared landscape garden and secure cycle storage.

There’s much to explore nearby, with the cultural attractions of Woolwich and the Royal Docks on buyers’ doorsteps.

Just a seven-minute walk away, King George V DLR station takes you to Canning Town in 13 minutes or Canary Wharf in 24 minutes.

Prices for homes with a 25% share start at £93,750 for a one-bed, £117,500 for a two-bed, and £132,500 for a three-bed.

While London’s price growth is the lowest in the country, it remains the most expensive place to buy in the UK

how average prices keep on creeping up

by Jon Massey

H Many of the properties are dual aspect and offer views across the river Woolwich Reach offers one, two and threebedroom homes through the shared ownership scheme to first-time buyers

ouse prices in the UK continue to rise across the country, although the slowest growth was seen in London in the latest figures from the Office Of National Statistics.

Based on properties sold, the average price for a home in May 2022 was £283,000 – up £3,000 on the previous month and £32,000 on the previous year.

While the South West was the region with the highest annual house price growth in May – a rise of 16.9%, London values grew more slowly, by 8.2% over 12 months. This was a rise in the capital, however, with the figure for April being 6.9%. London’s average house price – £526,000 – remained the most expensive across all UK regions, in contrast to the North East’s £154,000, which was the lowest.

Locally, average values were up 4.3% in Tower Hamlets to £475,397 over the last 12 months, 6.9% in Newham to £409,413, 4.2% in Lewisham to £452,678 and 4.7% in Greenwich to £419,437.

Elsewhere there were falls in London with drops of 1.1% in Westminster and 0.5% in Lambeth. Islington saw the largest rise with annual growth of 12.2%, followed

by Barking And Dagenham and Barnet, which both saw rises of 11.4%.

The most expensive area of the UK to buy was Kensington And Chelsea with an average price of £1.3million, while the cheapest was Burnley with an average price of £112,000. The cheapest London borough to buy in was Barking And Dagenham at an average of price £345k.

In terms of property type, detached houses saw the biggest growth with an annual rise of 15.3% while flats grew by 8.3% and terraced properties 13.2%.

Asking price for the property in Hackney Wick

how this property at Stone Studios is the last chance to buy at Telford Homes’ Hackney Wick development

W

hile there’s no shortage of properties in the pipeline at Hackney Wick, one scheme has nearly sold out. Telford Homes’ Stone Studios only has a single apartment still for sale on its books and the developer has given it a makeover in a bid to tempt buyers.

The two-bedroom property is priced at £740,000 and features an open-plan living area for cooking, dining and relaxing.

The single aspect apartment also features a main bedroom with an en suite, a second bathroom and a second bedroom as well as a terrace that runs most of the length of the flat.

As a show home, the property has been decorated and dressed

by Anita Rosato Interior Design.

“This location is in the beating heart of cool, wedged between the stunning Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Victoria Park, adjacent to the canal and riverscapes and well connected with the new Elizabeth Line,” said Anita.

“With this in mind, I wanted to design the apartment for anyone who loves the essence that London stands for.”

Her scheme includes a six-person dining table on the terrace and a bar fashioned from a potting table outside.

Indoors, the second bedroom has been furnished with a deep wooden desk and blue velvet chair as a home office to appeal to hybrid workers.

The main reception room features artwork, ceramics and accessories from local artists alongside industrial metal

cabinets, a vintage TV sideboard and Danish library shelves.

All fixtures, fittings and furnishings are included if the buyer reserves by August 31.

The development also boasts some 5,000sq m of commercial space with three fifths acquired by Creative Land Trust as affordable workspace for artists and entrepreneurs.

Residents will also have access to a communal courtyard with a play area and benches as well as an on-site, 12-hour concierge service and bike storage facilities.

Located on the edge of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Hackney Wick enjoys access to the many amenities of both Stratford and Broadway Market.

The property is close to Hackney Wick Overground station, which is one stop from Stratford station and its multitude of services.
