Buyers needn’t compromise in Colindale

According to recent figures published by property portal Rightmove, 58% of homebuyers aren’t willing to compromise on location, and would rather wait for a home to come onto the market in their desired area than look elsewhere. Colindale, NW9, is an ideal location for prospective buyers looking for a city home, boasting superb travel links and plenty of amenities on the doorstep. With Genesis’ two brand new developments Vision and Zenith House both in the heart of NW9, an affordable new home in the capital is within easy reach.

Colindale has been identified as one of the most significant areas for growth and regeneration in London and over the next 10-15 years will see 10,000 new homes being built. This classic North West London suburb is ideal for commuters, as at the heart of Colindale, and within one mile from both the developments, lies the Northern Line tube station, making commuting into central London a breeze.

Vision is the latest exciting chapter in the continuing regeneration of the Colindale area built by Genesis. It follows on from the previous successful properties on the site, and the ongoing evolution of the Zenith House development nearby. These new collections of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and four-bedroom houses are everything you would expect from one of London’s biggest and most successful housing associations.

“The excellent transport network and regeneration of the area has pinpointed Colindale as one of London’s up and coming hotspots. Genesis and The London Borough of Barnet are working together to build a sustainable community in Colindale.” says Anthony Harker, Head of Commercial for Genesis.

Vision is a vibrant new community of 20 new homes, with a wide range of property types to choose from that are currently being sold off plan, ready for occupation later this year. Each of the homes at this superb development have been built with a clear vision and carefully considered finish and specification to create clean, contemporary living. Video door entry systems and CCTV ensure homes are safe and secure, and residents can also make use of designated bicycle storage.

Zenith House is situated in a prime position on Edgware Road and will see a total of 308 new homes, offering a wide range of property types set across several buildings. The scheme’s flagship is a 16-storey tower creating a new landmark for the area and offering sweeping views of London. The homes boast high quality interior specification and include the latest in green technology, including solar panels, green roofs and superior insulation. For peace of mind, the development offers gated security, a secure underground car park and in each home a video entry system.

Colindale itself is a thriving neighbourhood with its own shops, eateries and leisure facilities, while nearby Brent Cross has been earmarked for its share of a £4.5bn regeneration scheme in the Chancellor’s Budget announcement earlier this year. Brent Cross Shopping Centre, which has over 120 shops including John Lewis and Waitrose, is just a short journey away, while for travelling out of London by car, the M1 is close by.

Vision and Zenith House are located approximately one mile from Colindale underground station on the Edgware branch of the Northern Line. Edgware is seven minutes away by tube, Hendon Central two minutes, Brent Cross five minutes and Leicester Square just 30 minutes. Mill Hill Broadway is the nearest Overground station, which is located less than 2 miles away from both the developments. There are many regular bus routes in the local area, which serve Vision, Zenith House and the Colindale community.

At Vision, one-bedroom apartments start from £220,000. Meanwhile at Zenith House, prices for a one bedroom apartment start from £260,000. Prices are subject to change.
