Prime Territory For London Commuters At Acton Gardens

Research from Savills highlights that growing prime commuter housing markets are set to outperform prime London in the next five years; with a forecasted growth of 24.5% by 2020[1]. Purchasers looking for a secure investment in one of London's most flourishing suburbs, and a short commute, should look no further than the Mansion Building Apartments at West Park Quarter, the latest phase at Countryside and L&Q's joint venture, Acton Gardens in W3.

Andrew Loveday, Sales Director at Countryside comments: “The properties at Acton Gardens offer a fantastic opportunity for purchasers to secure a solid investment within prime commuter territory that will benefit from Crossrail. As such, we have seen huge levels of interest from a varied selection of homebuyers. We urge potential purchasers to act fast and visit the marketing suite, before it's too late!”

Created with convenience, style and security in mind, the Mansion Building Apartments at West Park Quarter feature a stylish collection of one and two bedroom apartments, three bedroom überhauses and three and four bedroom penthouses. Interiors are designed with flexible free flowing living space featuring extensive glazing to maximise natural light. Most apartments also benefit from a terrace, providing an attractive space for entertaining guests.

The new homes boast a superb specification, with stylish kitchens featuring stone worktops, handle-less wall and base units, chrome accessories, ceramic floor tiles and a range of integrated appliances. Bathrooms and en suites comprise crisp white sanitaryware with chrome finishes and contrasting ceramic tiling.

Eco features are incorporated to help reduce energy consumption including double glazing, green roofs, solar panels and an energy centre to supply some of the heat and power, resulting in lower utility bills. The homes will achieve a minimum Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4 offering low heating, power and water consumption.

A range of new social and commercial community facilities are being built at the Hub, a 55,000 sq ft facility that will be located in the centre of Acton Gardens. This will also include a central plaza with a supermarket, new public open space and other community amenities, helping to bring residents of all age groups together.

Green open space plays a vital role at Acton Gardens, with tree-lined streets designed around a series of parks, squares and communal gardens, featuring extensive landscaping, play areas and allotments. In a nod to the traditional appeal of London's parks and squares, the outdoor spaces are designed to create social places for people to relax and enjoy, where pedestrians have priority and community interaction is encouraged. Nearby, South Acton Park also provides an urban park with mature trees lining the footpaths and a play area for children. The plans also include a proposed new bus route and street network linking with the surrounding area, as well as a car club for residents use.

With excellent transport connections, Acton Gardens is located within a short walk of Acton Town underground station providing Piccadilly and District Line services into the West End and the City. It is also close to Acton main line station, which will benefit from becoming a station on the Crossrail line when it opens in 2019.

Nearby Chiswick High Street offers an exciting range of designer boutiques, good pubs and restaurants, whilst the Westfield regional shopping centre at White City is only 20 minutes away by tube. For sports enthusiasts, golf is available at Old Deer Park, pitch and putt at Gunnersbury Park and tennis in Acton Park.

The Mansion Building Apartments are priced from £450,000 for a one bedroom apartment and £550,000 for a two-bedroom apartment. Also available at Acton Gardens are the Station Square Apartments, with prices for a two bedroom apartment starting at £535,000.
