Get outside with a brand new penthouse in trendy Dalston
Research from agents Marsh and Parsons has shown that properties with private outdoor space warrant a premium in London, with access to fresh air adding around 12 per cent to the value of a property. Perfect for this market, the three remaining apartments at Bellway’s Artisan development in Dalston, N16, all offer sizeable balconies and terraces, boasting glittering views across London and a private space to get outdoors. Add this to property values in N16 increasing 6.8% in the last 6 months alone, and you have a recipe for investment success.
Artisan is a collection of apartments perfect for contemporary living, enjoying a great location in the heart of trendy East London. The development is located close to a range of local amenities on Stoke Newington High Street, but enjoys a quiet setting off the main road making for a peaceful respite.
Peter Knights, Sales Director for Bellway Homes Thames Gateway division, says: “Even going through the cooler autumn months, having an outdoor space is still really important to homebuyers. A home with private and practical outdoor space can be such a rarity in London, so the fact that these three apartments have such amazing balconies and terraces is fantastic. They also offer stunning views across East London, which as it gets darker earlier, offer different ways to enjoy the London skyline in all seasons.”
Just three 3-bedroom penthouse apartments remain, offering stylish interiors and a high specification with spacious open plan living areas. Kitchens are fully fitted with contemporary units with soft close doors and drawers, as well as integrated stainless steel appliances including an oven, hob and fridge/freezer.
The master bedroom is served with fitted wardrobes providing excellent storage space, and is accompanied by a stylish en suite bathroom. Bedrooms two and three offer access to the family bathroom. All bathrooms and en suites offer white tiling, with chrome accessories, energy efficient downlighters and ceramic floor tiling.
Dalston is an increasingly popular area of the capital, and residents are well served by a vast array of local amenities. For shopping, Stoke Newington High Road is home to a wealth of vintage, independent and niche boutiques, while for more well-known high street brands, Kingsland Shopping Centre is under a ten minute walk from the development. Stratford for Westfield Shopping Centre, the largest of its kind in Europe, is just 20 minutes away by London Overground.
For evening entertainment, a plethora of eateries, bars, jazz clubs, and café’s, as well as neighbouring Shoreditch’s lively bar scene mean residents will never be short of things to do. For more peace and quiet however, the open spaces of Victoria Park, London Fields and Hackney Downs are all close by.
