Show Home Room By Room: Grand Union, Alperton

Posted 17 March 2023 by Helen Christie

WhatHouse? takes a tour of the new show home at St George’s Grand Union development…

Grand Union is located in Alperton, near to Stonebridge Park station on the Bakerloo line. It is a 3,350 home community being delivered by WhatHouse? Award-winning developer St George. 

WhatHouse? Award-winning developer St George has created a new three-bedroom show home at its Grand Union development with interior designers Muchmore Design. 

Muchmore Design’s creative director, Linsey Skepper, says: “This three-bedroom apartment oozes contemporary living, where form meets functionality and style is seamlessly intertwined with comfort. It is a true reflection of what St George is bringing to Alperton, which, once complete, will be a first-class development for resort-style living with a clear focus on sustainability and nature. This focus on sustainability is why we have been mindful to ensure our design includes recycled and reclaimed furniture, and as many responsibly sourced materials as possible.”

Entrance and hallway

Grand Union (St George)

From the moment you enter the home, you are greeted with a calming and beautifully presented space. It starts with a large hallway, anchored by a stunning bespoke bench, locally crafted by an independent carpenter, providing practical seating and storage whilst adding an effective design feature that zones the open plan living area. Substance has been carefully balanced with style, with a bespoke upholstered cushion in a geometric textured fabric adding opulence to the space. 
 

Living and dining area

Grand Union (St George)

As soon as you walk into the open plan living and dining area, you are drawn to the floor to ceiling windows which allow plenty of natural light through and showcase the new podium gardens. Decorated using Little Green Masquerade mid pink, which is a sustainable paint, it injects a delicate, powder-like hue and natural undertones throughout the room.

To contrast this, Muchmore has incorporated a natural feature wallpaper depicting wistful willow branches. This focal point in the room, combined with a ribbed vintage sideboard and planting, provides a sense of tranquillity before moving into the kitchen. 

Kitchen

Grand Union (St George)

This area features sleek, high-end integrated appliances and plenty of storage space. The seamless integration of the kitchen into the living and dining area allows for a more social space, perfect for entertaining guests or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home after a busy day exploring the neighbourhood.

Master bedroom

The master bedroom has been furnished with a rich colour palette of deep reds, blues, mustard, and touches of brass. Muchmore has designed the space to instantly draw the eye to the bespoke slatted headboard, with its textured appearance adding depth and height to the room, which is also donned by furniture crafted in a local South London joinery workshop. An eco-conscious headboard like this one can be an excellent investment that can give a room a premium finish, style, as well as additional display opportunities.

Second bedroom

The second bedroom oozes boldness and colour, underpinned by the modernist cube and geometric wallpaper print that frames the bed. Black ceramic Art Deco bedside table lights with oversized shades and a bright orange bed throw create a vibrant look throughout the room.

Third bedroom

Grand Union (St George)

The third bedroom has been designed as a multi-functional guest room that can double up as a study, making it a great choice for those who need a flexible room that can accommodate guests and office space. This room features a beautiful three-seater sofa bed upholstered in mustard velvet, which can be easily transformed into a double bed when needed. Adjacent to the sofa bed is a black birch desk with brass-finish steel drawer handles, giving sophisticated allure to the room while providing a functional work area for productivity. The grand Safari wallpaper inspired by jungle textures and prints injects drama to the room, with thoughtful touches also included such as contemporary shelving and feature lighting.

Outdoor space

The show home has access to a large terrace area that is accessible via the third bedroom and living space and looks out onto the landscaped Podium Gardens and toward the Grand Union canal. On the opposite side of the apartment, the two other bedrooms have views of the boulevard, with the principal bedroom opening out onto a private balcony.

Prices at Affinity House start from £780,000 for a three-bedroom apartment, while the one-bedroom apartments at Waterview House start from £440,000. The Grand Union Marketing Suite is open daily from 10am until 6pm Monday – Saturday and 10am and 5pm on Sundays.
