Apartments at Regency Court, Kings Park offer great park life
As highlighted by a study by the University of Exeter, parks, gardens and green space in urban areas can improve the wellbeing and quality of life of people living there. Using data from over 5,000 households and 10,000 adults, researchers found that living in a greener area had a significant positive effect.
Situated within 18 acres of open space and parkland, the latest phase at Kings Park in Harold Wood, Essex by Countryside Properties features a new collection of very spacious one, two and three bedroom apartments known as Regency Court. The apartments, which range in size from 546 sq ft to 1,363 sq ft, are available through the Help to Buy scheme and will boast a prime location facing the attractively landscaped Imperial Gardens. Each property features a balcony or terrace to relax, unwind and enjoy the views. The apartments are also a short walk from Harold Wood station offering fast connections to London Liverpool Street.

The apartments at Regency Court will offer great views overlooking Imperial Gardens to enjoy whilst at home, as well as a great environment to enjoy exercising. With a network of footpaths and cycle routes that will connect to the open space, people will be able to enjoy cycling, jogging or walking around this parkland development.”
