how shared ownership homes at West Ham Village offer rapid access to Canary Wharf and the city beyond

Shared ownership properties at West Ham Village have gone on sale. Peabody New Homes has released a collection of studio, one and two-bedroom apartments at a development with direct access to West Ham station offering a multitude of connections.

Hitting the market recently, the properties are situated in the 14-storey Cherry Point and form part of Berkeley Homes’ extensive Twelvetrees Park scheme on the site of a former gasworks.

“An unmissable opportunity for east London’s aspiring homebuyers, our shared ownership collection at West Ham Village is a calming retreat within easy reach of the bustling city centre,” said Joe Farrington, head of sales for West Ham Village at Peabody New Homes.

“Cherry Point is a remarkable selection of homes at the heart of a growing community, benefiting from a new neighbourhood where buyers need not travel far to embrace extensive amenities and leisure pursuits.

“Now launched, we urge prospective buyers looking to be amongst the first to discover this shared ownership collection by

registering their interest on our website now.”

The properties themselves feature open-plan design with oak laminate flooring and carpets in the bedrooms. Fitted kitchens naturally come with integrated appliances and some properties come with private outdoor terraces.

Based on the development’s brochure, buyers can expect studios at around 550sq ft, one-beds at 630sq ft and two-beds between 730 and 830sq ft.

On-site amenities will include a Sainsbury’s Local and plans for restaurants and cafés around a central square that promises to host seasonal markets, coffee stalls and street food vendors.

Perhaps the key selling point for West Ham Village is its transport links – a key consideration for anyone buying in London. The station is in Zone 2, offering Jubilee, District, Hammersmith And City, DLR and C2C services, meaning residents will be able to get to vast swathes of the capital in less than half an hour.

Stratford and Canary Wharf are a three or seven-minute journey away once you’re on the train making for a rapid commute to either destination.

Positioned between these two flourishing regeneration projects and connected directly to Green-

wich Peninsula and Canning Town, the scheme forms part of the second big wave of east and south-east London renewal, which is currently under way.

As the major powerhouse projects continue to drive prosperity across the area, places like West Ham, Bow, Poplar and the south of the Isle Of Dogs are all slated for growth and change.

This will increasingly see the gaps between the larger schemes shrink as developers turn their attentions to fresh opportunities, aiming to capitalise on the existing attractions of neighbourhoods.

For West Ham Village, these include the quirks of Star Lane including Cody Dock’s impressive ecological regeneration (including the world’s only hand-cranked rolling bridge), Fold nightclub and the Star Lane Pizza Bar, a heady blend of food, music, recording facilities and workspace.

But in such a well-connected location, there’s also the opportunity to shop on the Wharf or in Stratford and discover the true wealth of amenities east London now offers.

Soon these will include the cultural titans of East Bank, home to two V&A museums, the BBC’s music operation, Sadler’s Wells East and the vibrant student communities of UCL and the London College Of Fashion. Who wouldn’t want to be right at the heart of all that?

Shared ownership properties being marketed by Latimer Homes at One Goodmayes - more than half have already sold

why apartments at One Goodmayes are proving popular with shared ownership buyers

There’s clear evidence of demand in the shared ownership market at present. Latimer Homes reports more than half of the 90 properties have sold in the first two weeks of hitting the market at One Goodmayes.

The affordable housing provider – part of housing association Clarion Housing Group – blames a lack of such properties for its recent sales success.

““Homes at Latimer at One Goodmayes are flying off the shelf due to the pressing shortage of affordable housing in London,’ said Iryna Khlebovych, sales manager at Latimer.

“Their location in Ilford – with excellent connectivity – makes them an ideal choice for buyers eager to find a home in a well-connected community.

“Selling half of the homes during the initial launch highlights the urgent need for achievable options for solo buyers and couples looking to get a foot on the property ladder.”

Perhaps there’s more than the forces of supply and demand at work here. Latimer’s apartments are located at One Goodmayes – a development of some 568 properties by Fairview New Homes.

Arranged over a former Homebase site, connectivity is central to its appeal with Elizabeth Line services running from both Seven Kings and Goodmayes stations nearby.

That direct route straight through central London gives it broad appeal whether buyers are seeking to commute to Stratford, the City or Canary Wharf, or simply looking for a location with rapid access to the West End.

Apartments range in size from one-beds to three-beds, with half dual aspect and all boasting

either a private balcony or terrace. Facilities at the development include cycle storage, a podium garden, play areas and a space for locals to grow their own plants.

The scheme also features dedicated community space, a public square, a co-working facility and a digital music academy. Further plans include an extensive gym, a cafe, on-site management office and more than 7,900sq m of landscaped space. It’s an attractive proposition when taken against Ilford’s existing open spaces, restaurants, bars and schools.

Prices for the remaining properties at One Goodmayes start at £102,000 for a 30% share of a two-bedroom apartment with a full market value of £340,000. Prospective buyers would require a minimum deposit of £5,100 for this property.
