Located on the south bank of the River Thames, Nine Elms is the largest regeneration zone in central London. As part of a multi-billion-pound investment initiative, the area is transforming into a hub for technology and is blooming into a brand-new residential and commercial zone.
Nine Elms is the preferred location of well-known firms and offers the best of everything like infrastructure, a high-quality lifestyle, convenient transportation, and easy access to the rest of London. As for entertainment, Nine Elms has them all – art events, job fairs, business events and unique places where old and modern London collide – cafés and restaurants now exist where tanneries, waterworks, and leadworks previously did.
Retail, commercial and residential property investors fall in love with the Nine Elms area because it will soon boast new iconic landmarks that are joining the existing landmarks like the Battersea Power Station to attract tourists and Londoners alike.
These days, the area is home to stylish residential complexes with stunning amenities, like Battersea Power Station, Upper Park Residence at Prince Of Wales Drive and Oval Village.
North-West London (Wembley and Hendon)
North-west London is another lovely location because it has more parks and quieter communities. Buyers here consistently place a premium on outdoor space – terraces, balconies and proximity to green space – which makes the area particularly desirable. There are two main areas in north-west London to consider for property investment:
Wembley
In north-west London, Wembley has a lot to offer. It is especially popular as the home of England’s national football team and Wembley Stadium – one of the most famous event venues in the world.
Wembley is constantly being rebuilt and has changed into a thriving and dynamic area with a large selection of retail establishments. It has a modern shopping centre with a cinema, restaurants serving a wide variety of cuisine, entertainment options, and many green areas. In terms of infrastructure, Wembley has three stations and three underground lines and is only 12 minutes away from central London. Young professionals are drawn to the region in particular because of these amenities.
As a result of its regeneration and growth, Wembley is becoming an especially desirable destination to live and make investments. If you’re looking to invest in a new property in Wembley, we recommend considering the London investment prospects at No. 10 Watkin Road. They’re situated in the centre of the neighbourhood and are unmissable.
This prime location is well-connected to the rest of the city. As a resident, you can enjoy the best of urban living with a balcony, terrace, or rooftop gardens that offer some of the most spectacular panoramic views of the entire City of London.
Hendon
Hendon, one of the most dynamic residential neighbourhoods in north London, is an excellent area with investment possibilities and many attractions. Both Brent Cross, one of London’s largest shopping centres, and the Brent Reservoir, often known as the Welsh Harp, with its 170 lovely hectares of marshland and water, are located here.
Hendon features a wide range of architectural styles. You can find modern detached mansions that cost several million pounds on Brampton Grove – one of Hendon’s most exclusive streets. Families can benefit from top-notch schools, open areas, places to eat, as well as great infrastructure that provides easy access to the rest of London.
So, if you’re looking for a place with growing investment possibilities, Hendon is a good choice. We recommend looking into the Silkstream area. It’s a new apartment residential area with access to central London (King’s Cross) via Thameslink in just 19 minutes, and a 6-minute drive from Brent Cross.
This new construction offers a concierge and lounge area, two private screening cinema rooms, a private gym and fitness facilities. There’s also a designated co-working site for those working remotely or freelancing that includes meeting spaces, video teleconferencing booths, a lounge area for coffee and drinks, and an outdoor terrace overlooking the 1.5-acre park.
Other options would be Hendon Waterside, a property with one and two-bedroom flats, and Grand Union, which offers a perfect location and excellent connections to central London.
East London
The last candidate for the top areas to invest in London is East London. In recent years, the area went through continuous transformation and regeneration, becoming a gentrified and well-liked commuter neighbourhood.
East London provides exceptional value options for property investment.
From the Olympic Park, the nearby Hackney Marshes and a growing list of Michelin-starred restaurants to key London landmarks like the Tower of London and the O2 Arena; rooftop pubs, upscale shops, and a range of vintage enterprises, the region has so much to offer for every interest. It also offers excellent transportation options that make it simple and quick to commute to or go to central London.
The finance, banking, and technology industries are all thriving there. Many large national and international corporations have their headquarters in East London. East London offers a wide range of flats and homes for sale, from brand-new construction in Barking to penthouse residences and buy-to-let properties close to Canary Wharf. Our recommended investment opportunities in East London include Poplar Riverside, New Market Place, TwelveTrees Park, South Quay Plaza and Upton Gardens.
