Lansdowne Terrace offers an excellent investment opportunity in London

A great location, a wide range of amenities and a superb investment opportunity – all available at Lansdowne terrace, London.

This newly refurbished tower, located close to East Croydon rail station is the perfect opportunity for investors to benefit from solid returns. The area is undergoing regeneration and this includes the £1 billion Westfield Shopping Mall.

The development consists of 70 one bedroom apartments and 28 two bedroom apartments with the projected completion date set for Q1 2017. What makes this development even more exciting is the fact that Croydon is fast becoming one of the most desirable areas in London. The area is also attracting a large number of people who are looking beyond the more expensive areas of central London but also for an improved lifestyle and value for money.

Lansdowne Terrace benefits from excellent transport links with rail, trams and buses offering easy access to London as well as other areas further afield such as Brighton. In fact, Croydon railway station is the busiest station outside of London and this will assure investors that the area is very well connected. Trains link the residents of Croydon who work further afield; the opportunity to travel to Gatwick in under 15 minutes which further improves the desirability of the area.

Investors will be pleased to know that the area is growing in population at a considerable rate and between 2011 and 2020; the population is expected to rise by 20,000. 

What does this mean for investors?

The growing population of Croydon means that there are many people living in the area but there is also the problem of a short supply in properties. The council estimate that they require 1,900 new homes per year in order to keep up with the demand and this will provide investors with the confidence they need to invest in the wonderful development at Lansdowne Terrace.

The area will benefit from the new shopping mall but there is also the industry of the area that investors need to consider. There are around 12,000 businesses located in the area and this includes some of the biggest names in the world of business such as BT, Barclays and Goldman Sachs. This means that Croydon and in particular, Lansdowne Terrace will attract young professionals who are more than happy to rent a property in a thriving, trendy area, making it a fantastic property investment in London.

Investors will benefit from property prices that are 60% lower than prices seen in the City and that will mean that they get more for their money. There is also the increase in property prices in the area as the year to Q3 2015 saw prices increase by 11.1%.

There will also be a generous capital appreciation on properties at Lansdowne Terrace as they are expected to increase by 63% over ten years and that will please investors who are looking for a long-term investment.
