St James in Hammersmith & Fulham
New Homes from St James starting from £665,000
College Park and Old Oak, Hammersmith & Fulham
WhatHouse? Location Ratings explained here St James is part of the Berkeley Group. Building around Greater London, it provides high-specification properties that range from one-bedroom apartments to six-bedroom family homes.
While building some dedicated residential sites, the St James brand specialises in mixed-use developments on ‘brownfield’ locations that complement the new homes with other elements, such as commercial and retail units that bring new jobs to the area, community and leisure facilities, and public open spaces. This approach to bringing added appeal to already sought-after areas, often close to the River Thames, has previously won St James Gold in the WhatHouse? Awards 2017 Best Public Realm category for a development in Brentford. More recently the housebuilder won Gold for the White City Living development at the WhatHouse? Awards 2022 in the Best Regeneration Scheme category.
In order to attract buyers to its developments, St James combines top architectural design, frequently working with world-renowned names such as Foster + Partners, with the very best interior features. Its exclusive projects frequently offer residents their own leisure facilities, such as a private pool and spa, with access to those in nearby high-end hotels, such as games rooms, bars/dining rooms and private cinemas.
As they might expect, the buyers of a St James property can rely on a high-level customer service that allocates a manager to the purchaser to take them through from reservation to after-sales care.
The Berkeley Group has its own charity, the Berkeley Foundation, which has donated millions of pounds to over 100 charities which focus on elements such as providing good-quality housing, supporting those with disability or illness, fostering the skills of young people and assisting people in finding work.

Award Comments
The creation of the high quality new public open space, new pedestrian bridges over the neighbourhood tube lines and links under the railway line towards the Westfield shopping complex has transformed this section of Wood Lane and demonstrates an excellent placemaking approach to regeneration supported by high quality new homes and commercial spaces.
White City Living by St James, part of the Berkeley Group, is a shining example of how regeneration can improve the quality of life for local people.
