Chiswick Point

Recent figures suggest that London is set to rake in more money within the next 2 years, with a predicted 16.2% of the annual national income from staycationers, being spent within London, an added £3.4 billion on top of the money generated in 2013 (£14.1bn). By the western post of London, lies Chiswick, a rustic jewel next to a city with a flavour appealing to any staycationer.

Chiswick Point, a development of one, two and three bedroom apartments, is well positioned for staycationers as Michelle Harris, head of sales at Bellway Homes North London explains; “Chiswick is a fantastic location with a variety of local attractions on the doorstep - a great area for staycationers. Rather than travelling into the city centre, residents can take advantage of the local attractions to encapsulate the finer life - leisurely walks across the Thames, an abundance of vintage shops along Chiswick High Street, and even a local nature reserve.” The 18th Century Chiswick House is within walking distance and presents the ideal opportunity to visit the open air cinema in its beautiful grounds.

In Chiswick, staycationers are spoilt for choice as there’s a Michelin starred restaurant La Trompette as well as an array of superb gastro-pubs and delis in the area. Along the high street in Chiswick, lies an array of vintage shops such as the Old Cinema, an 1890’s picture palace which is now London’s only antiques, vintage and retro department store. The beautiful Kew Gardens, founded in 1840 and home to the world’s largest collection of living plants, is also located only a stone’s throw away.

With an uncompromising approach to design, build quality and finish the apartments at Chiswick Point provide the ideal investment for staycationers. The diligently designed layouts expose the light and space of the property. This same attention to detail is evident throughout, exemplified by the choice of materials to the stylish appliances in the kitchens and contemporary sanitaryware in the bathrooms.

Each apartment includes a balcony, with most boasting fantastic views of the Gunnersbury Triangle. Other key features include underfloor heating, a video entry system and access to a concierge service.

Chiswick is also a popular choice of destination for young budding professionals. Located next to the nature reserve is Chiswick Business Park, one of the country’s most dynamic corporate campuses and is frequently named one of the UK’s Top 50 workplaces in the UK. Businesses enjoying the perfect ‘enjoy-work’ balance include CBS News, Starbucks Coffee Company, Paramount Pictures and PepsiCo.

If staycationers are looking for chic attire to add to their wardrobe, Knightsbridge is just 19 minutes away via the underground, or for tranquillity they need look no further than Kew Gardens, only 11 minutes on the District line. With excellent transport links into Central London, the District line eastbound is only 22 minutes away from Victoria.

If culture is the order of the day, further hot spots are easily accessible via Chiswick, whether it’s Westminster, the South Bank, or perhaps St Paul’s Cathedral, all of which can be reached in 50 minutes through the underground.

Prices at Chiswick Point start from £599,995. For more information, visit chiswickpoint.com.
