In a nod to iconic British photographer Roger Fenton, Barratt London has announced the launch of the Fenton Apartments at Eastman Village – offering a selection of one, two- and three-bedroom apartments and duplexes to prospective investors, situated in the heart of a top London redevelopment area.
Located on the site of the former Kodak film factory, Eastman Village is part of a larger £1.75bn improvement scheme in Harrow. The development will include schools, shops, leisure facilities, commercial space and two on-site gyms. The development will also create 3,000 jobs. Boasting five different train lines running into the capital, and a choice of more than 30 local schools in Harrow that have been given the top Ofsted rating of “Outstanding”, the development is set to be a prime investment opportunity.
Mandy Wong at JLL comments: “We’re continuing to see increased interest in Harrow from buyers in [region]. This is an exciting time for investors to make the most of the £1.75bn improvement scheme in Harrow, which Eastman Village is a key part of. The regeneration of the site is not only providing a beautiful place to live that blends the rich history with modern and efficient living, but a prime investment opportunity the area achieving average rental yields of 4% and a forecasted 14% rental growth over the next 5-years.”
This Fenton Apartments is 15-storeys tall and is one of the tallest buildings within the development. Apartments come in one-, two-, and three-bedroom layouts with spacious open-plan living and a balcony or terrace, providing residents with that all-important outdoor space. The interiors have been decorated with today’s design trends in mind, complete with Crittall windows and bold coloured furniture. The development's ethos is reflected in the space, a mixture of old and new.
Residents in the upper floors of the apartments will enjoy breath-taking views of the surrounding area. Those who choose the southeast facing apartments will also be treated to a picture-perfect view of London’s skyline every day.
Mandy continues: “Harrow is a very sought after location which makes it a solid investment. It’s a fantastic area for public transport connection, offering quick train services into central London from two stations; it’s like living in zone two even though you’re in zone five.”
