The Highbridge Apartments, Langdon Apartments and Tomlins Apartments at St Anns are set around a landscaped inner courtyard with parking areas and form part of the regeneration of the Gascoigne Estate. Accessed from St Anns Road, the first phase of the mixed tenure scheme will comprise a total of 125 homes for private sale, rental and shared ownership.
Neil Armstrong, Marketing Director commented, "The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham and indeed the Thames Gateway are ripe for regeneration, with the development focus now moving to the east of the capital. The improved aesthetics and commercial opportunities, combined with the area's superb links to the City and M25 will have a huge effect on the local housing market, and my advice to investors and first time buyers would be to purchase in this area now while prices are still affordable."
Buyers will be able to choose from twelve different apartment styles. Most of which have their own outdoor space, with either patios on the ground floors or balconies above. Each apartment is complemented by a specification of texture and colour including fully fitted kitchens in either an oak or ivory finish with stainless steel handles and an integrated oven and grill with gas hob and integrated extractor hood. The stylish bathrooms are white with chrome fittings.
Situated in a prime position close to London Docklands, Barking offers many restaurants, bars, pubs and leisure amenities, as well as a developing arts scene with a number of creative activities, arts projects and theatres. Barking is a lively and cosmopolitan place to live, full of bustle and activity with a variety of shops and fantastic nightlife. Despite its close proximity to central London, the area also has plenty of open spaces to walk and relax in.
St Anns offers the commuter a great choice of transport options. The A13 is close by, giving easy access to the North Circular and the M25. Rail options are also good with Barking Station less than five minutes walk from your apartment offering access to both British Rail and London Underground services (Hammersmith & City and District lines). Numerous buses also operate to and from Barking.
