New Affordable Homes by Watkin Jones

Watkin Jones is set to deliver new affordable homes at a prime location, with a focus on social rent housing to meet local needs.

Strategic Location for Education

The area is attracting new educational institutions, including the Royal College of Art’s new campus at Hester Road. Additionally, the Northern Line extension enhances accessibility to various central London universities.

Student Accommodation to Meet Local Demand

We believe that providing new student accommodations, including affordable options, satisfies a growing local demand. This initiative is expected to make family homes more accessible to local residents by potentially freeing up existing student housing and reducing the number of properties converted into student Houses of Multiple Occupation.

Consideration for Neighbors

We are considerate of our neighbors, particularly those residing in Viridian Apartments. To ensure privacy and minimize disruption, we have opted to position our development away from the boundary line, increasing the space between existing and new residences.
