Urban cool at affordable prices in Dalston
Dalston reached the peak of cutting edge when it was named the coolest place on the planet by Italian Vogue in 2009. Since then it has established itself as a sought after location for young professionals, drawn by its vibrant nightlife, cultural scene, improved transport links and growing number of new homes. Property values in the area have risen in line with its gentrification, but there are still affordable options to be found, such as Roseberry Place, a new collection of homes available under Family Mosaic’s shared ownership scheme.
Roseberry Place is part of Dalston Square, the most prestigious new development in the area, but thanks to the part-rent part-buy scheme offered by Family Mosaic, homes at E8’s premier address are an affordable opportunity. Roseberry Place is a collection of just six apartments available in a range of one and two bedroom layouts.
It is Dalston’s nightlife that attracts the young and cool, with its many and varied nightspots giving it the hip vibe it is known for. Whether you are after food, music, theatre, drinks or simply dancing the night away, there is a wide array of choices. It’s also a great place to indulge in retail therapy, whether trawling the local vintage shops, exploring the street stalls of Ridly Road market or a little further afield the boutiques of Spitalfields and the colourful sights of Columbia Road Flower Market.
Lauren Nicholson, Head of Marketing at Family Mosaic, comments: “Dalston has a great atmosphere as a place to live and there is certainly a lot of entertainment, with an endless list of bars, clubs, shops and restaurants opening up. What is more the homes at Roseberry Place benefit from all of the extra amenities and community of the established development at Dalston Square.”
Dalston Square is a ground-breaking new development focused around the redevelopment of Dalston Junction station. The homes at Roseberry Place are conveniently situated for the new overground station, from where there are fast and frequent trains to Central London, the City and Canary Wharf. Dalston Square also includes a gym, a new public library, several shops and the largest public square built in London for over 100 years, where a series of events and festivals are held such as outdoor movie screenings.
The homes at Roseberry Place provide a peaceful retreat from the busy social life of Dalston. Interiors are finished with a high quality specification, including modern white gloss kitchen units fully fitted with integrated appliances, wood effect flooring and sleek white bathroom suites. Each home has its own private outdoor space in the form of a balcony and allocated parking is provided.
Buying under shared ownership from Family Mosaic allows the purchaser to buy the share of their home that they can afford – as little as 30% - and pay a subsidised rent on the remaining share of the property. They can increase their share at any time and eventually own it outright. The scheme is open to households with an income of up to £66,000.
Prices at Roseberry Place start from £113,700 for a 30% share of a one-bedroom home, based on a full market value of £379,000. For further information visit familymosaicsales.co.uk.
