A bus tling c ommuter town, jus t 45 minute s fr om t he c apit al London is a truly global destination city which leads the world in hundreds of different fields. People from all over the country move to London and the surrounding areas to live, work and enjoy the fantastic lifestyle that the capital city offers. However, a significant amount of people want to enjoy the capital city but live somewhere a little less hectic. The hustle and bustle of the capital is a bit too much for many people and they prefer to live in nearby towns which offer a quieter life while
still being within easy reach. In addition to this, lots of people quite simply cannot afford to live in London but still want to be there for the unbeatable employment opportunities on offer. X1 Chatham Waters’ location in the old docklands near the Medway is the perfect mixture of being relatively peaceful, but still connected to London. Likewise, the physical distance from the centre of London means that it will appeal to those who desire more affordable accommodation than that on offer
in the capital, even though it is still only a short and easy journey away. In addition, the opening of Crossrail in 2018 will make travel in London and the South East far simpler, with improved journey times, better connections and a less congested service. With more direct travel available, residents will be able to access the capital quickly and simply. The transport connections on offer to residents of X1 Chatham Waters will ensure that this development is highly desirable to potential residents.

GLASGOW HARBOUR X1 Chatham Waters is part of the wider Strategic Waters initiative which aims to create sustainable communities that will benefit areas on the UK’s stunning waterways. All of the seven Strategic Waters sites are located on coastlines, canals and docklands, including Chatham Waters. Altogether, more than 30,000 new homes will be delivered across the sites over the next three decades, and the process is already well underway with developments like MediaCityUK, including the 1,100 apartments at X1 Media City, proving the success of the schemes. X1 Chatham Waters is a major part of the Strategic Waters scheme, following in the footsteps of X1 Media City and X1 Manchester Waters, to deliver high quality accommodation in one of the UK’s fastest growing towns. The Chatham Waters portion of the overall initiative is already well
underway. The first three phases of the masterplan are already complete, delivering retail and leisure facilities and a public park to the local community. In addition, the infrastructure for future mixed-use schemes is currently being developed which will eventually improve the area even further. With sites as far apart as Glasgow, Manchester and Chatham, the scope of the Strategic Waters initiative is very exciting and it is no surprise that previous X1 developments at MediaCityUK and Manchester Waters have proven so popular. The community which is already being built at Chatham Waters is sure to be equally exciting and this is an unmissable opportunity to invest in one of the UK’s fastest-growing and most exciting areas.
