Recent research has identified a move away from hybrid working; notably, 43% of professionals now report that they work fully in an office.* With more people being called back to their desks, properties in well-connected regions of the capital are becoming increasingly sought after.
For those looking for convenient access to London’s top business districts, Canary Wharf and The City of London, L&Q at Brunel Street Works offers a collection of one and two bedroom Shared ownership homes. Situated a few minutes’ walk to Canning Town Station, the new development offers journeys of just five-minutes to Canary Wharf, via the Jubilee line, whilst The City, London Bridge, and Westminster are all accessible within twenty-minutes or less.
Prices at the vibrant new development are competitive in comparison to other shared ownership developments in the area. For a 25% share of a one bedroom apartment, pricing starts from £100,000 (full market value: £400,000). What’s more, deposits start from as little as 5% and monthly rents from £545, offering welcome affordability for those seeking a home just moments from Canning Town station without having to compromise their lifestyle. Prospective residents could in fact become shared owners for less than the monthly costs associated with privately renting a similar home in the surrounding area.
For a limited time, L&Q will be offering up to £5,000 towards buying costs on their one bedroom apartments at Brunel Street Works, to provide additional support to those on the hunt for a new home in the capital.**
