Home of the Day – Triplex at Upton Gardens, Barratt London
Posted 21 January 2020 by
Keith OsborneThe WhatHouse? team reports on our current favourite new home for sale right now – today, we pick a four-bedroom triplex apartment at Upton Gardens, a Barratt London development on the site of the old West Ham United football stadium in the London Borough of Newham.
Plot 290 in Freeman House is a triplex – part of the apartment block and set out over three floors. While that sounds like the very height of luxury, this property is available from £600,000, the upper threshold of government-backed London Help to Buy, which needs a deposit of 5% and provides the purchaser with an equity loan of 40% of the asking price, interest-free for five years. In total, this property has a very generous 1,747 sq ft of living space. Those reserving before 31 January 2020 can qualify for a special offer of £500 towards their mortgage payments for the first 12 months.
This property has its own front door to the ground floor, which has a kitchen/dining room, cloakroom and living room, which accesses a very useful under-stair storage cupboard, and the south-facing, private rear terrace. This in turn has a gate to the landscaped grounds at the centre of the development. On the first floor are a bathroom, more storage space and two double bedrooms, and on the top floor is another sizeable storage cupboard and two more double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room.
Located only a few minutes on foot from Upton Park station on the District/Hammersmith & City lines, Upton Gardens is just a few stops from the heart of the City of London. When completed, this development will have built 842 new homes to suit a wide range of buyers. Complementing the homes are green open space, rooftop terraces, play arreas, landscaped walkways and public art. Residents have use of an on-site gym, concierge service and car club, as well as a proposed café and community space.
