Q I’m a first time buyer who’s just got a job with one of the large tech companies in King’s Cross and am looking for an affordable new apartment that gives me an easy commute. It needs to be able to offer me an escape from work, but still be in an area that’s just as buzzy. Oh yes, and it needs to be somewhere I can move into right away! I know it’s a big ask, but can you help?
A There’s a lot of requirements there but I think Verdica from Countryside Homes absolutely fits the bill! It’s in vibrant Camden, London NW1, and is just a three-minute walk to Chalk Farm tube station. From there, it’s just seven minutes to King’s Cross St Pancras… It doesn’t get much better than being able to get from the front door to your office in less than 15 minutes!
But what Verdica also offers is a chance to keep a healthy work-life balance. You have the energy and buzz of dynamic Camden Town on your doorstep, but these stunning studio, one and two bedroom apartments (all with balconies) are set around a private landscaped courtyard garden – and represent a welcoming escape from the pace of London life. Living here, you’re close to central London, but within easy reach are Primrose Hill, Regent’s Park and Hampstead Heath – three of the capital’s best loved and lush green spaces.
One thing about living at Verdica is that even staying close to home, you’ll never be short of something to do. There’s an enviable choice of bars and eateries close by, while The Roundhouse, opposite the development, offers a year-round calendar of exciting cultural events. The historic Camden Market is just a three-minute walk away and remains the hotspot for fashion trends and vintage delights.
Being a first time buyer I know budgets will be important, but you’ll be pleased to hear that Verdica is priced very competitively versus other new build schemes in the area – but still offers an extremely high standard specification with a host of energy saving features. This includes a modern, handleless kitchen with a range of Siemens integrated appliances, engineered wood flooring to the hall, bedrooms, living area and kitchen, underfloor heating and LED downlights throughout.
The other advantage that Verdica offers is that the apartments are move-in ready, meaning you can be celebrating your new job and your new home with drinks on the balcony or gardens. What a great way to start the summer!
