Bentley Place, Hammersmith

For cycling enthusiasts, the latest Bellway Homes development situated in the heart of Hammersmith would be a hassle-free option for London home ownership. Bentley Place offers one, two and three bedroom homes with bicycle storage in a gated basement. The apartments are only a short six-minute bike ride to Shepherds Bush, 13-minutes to Fulham and half an hour to the West End. Great for the work commute.

Over two million people across the country now cycle at least once a week, an all-time high according to British Cycling, the sport’s UK governing body. From June 11th it’s National Bike Week, promoting riding to work, with buddy events being held throughout the country up until September. Whether it’s for the trip to work or for leisure this development offers attractive cycle routes. For those wanting to get out into the open and make the most of the local landscaping, Bentley Place is also only a six-minute ride to the River Thames tow path and nine minutes to Ravenscourt Park for family bike rides.

Zoe Dobbs, Sales Manager at Bellway Homes North London, comments: “Our Bentley Place apartments are close to many routes used by cyclists in the borough. In the coming years, more money is likely to be spent by TfL on improving these routes too.

“The apartments at Bentley Place are ideal for those who would rather take a bike than commute to work, especially for those working in Fulham and West London, and for those looking for contemporary homes with outdoor space.

“With so much to offer locally professional couples, families and investors alike will find Bentley Place perfect for hassle-free London living.”

The apartments provide a sanctuary for those who like the great outdoors, with carefully considered layouts making the best use of light and space and this same attention to detail is evident throughout, demonstrated in everything from the choice of materials to the modern appliances in the kitchens and contemporary sanitaryware in the bathrooms. Key features include underfloor heating, a video entry system and cycle storage in the basement while private underground parking is also available to purchase.

Perfect for cyclists, the new homes are conveniently located within minutes of bustling Hammersmith while being situated in a peaceful, one-way tree lined street, so home owners can get the best of both worlds. Shepherds Bush Market is within walking distance as well as Hammersmith underground station, which offers direct and regular services into Liverpool Street, Monument and the north.

For that well-earned downtime, the open expanses of parkland nearby offer a perfect place to relax and enjoy outdoor activities. Brook Green is just a few minutes’ walk away and offers recreational space, a children’s playground and tennis courts. Also within easy reach, Ravenscourt Park boasts enticing green open spaces, as well as attractive landscaping, a range of wildlife habitats and an excellent array of leisure facilities.

Other good local road links include access to the A4, which offers journeys into central London to the east and connects with the M4 to the west, providing access to Heathrow Airport in approximately 25 minutes.

Prices start from £599,995 for a one bedroom and £799,995 for two bedroom apartments with Help to Buy available on selected one bedroom plots. For further information, visit bellway.co.uk.
