Sales success at Queensgate, Croydon
In the property world, the most important points to consider when moving home have long been ‘location, location and location.’ This is certainly true today, when media reports suggest that the property market is in the ‘doldrums.’The sales success of Fairview New Homes’ Queensgate development in Croydon, certainly suggests that local buyers are becoming increasingly aware of the potential of the area, the great transport links and the added value that comes from buying a home in a carefully designed new living environment.
Queensgate is a stunning new development of one and two-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom townhouses, created on the site of the former Queen’s Hospital on Pawsons Road. With wide tree-lined avenues and plenty of green open space, the landscaped setting is certainly attractive and the new homes have been designed with the environment in mind, with selected homes featuring a whole range of eco-friendly initiatives.
From the outset, Queensgate has proved to be a fantastic sales success as far as Fairview New Homes is concerned. An abundance of off-plan sales led to the closure of the sales office during the summer months, allowing construction work to keep pace with the sales rates! The recent relaunch also attracted plenty of attention with over 20% of the latest sales release being snapped up almost immediately.

Best friends, Danielle Riley and Kelly O’Hare, bought a two-bedroom apartment off-plan at Queensgate and received a fantastic package of incentives including help with their deposit, legal fees and stamp duty. Croydon was a perfect location for them as they needed to be near London where they both work and the rail journey from Croydon station to London Bridge or Victoria only takes about 30 minutes.
The three-bedroom houses with balconies and garages, have proved so popular with couples and young families looking to make the move from an apartment to a house that only a few remain available.
“Whether you’re a property investor, first time buyer or a young professional, Croydon is an excellent place to invest in,” comments Jim Holliday, Fairview New Homes’ sales and marketing director. “Over the last five years, property prices in the area have grown at a nominal annual rate of 8.9%; a level of growth that owes much to the £3.5 billion invested in the town’s regeneration which has resulted in new retail, commercial and leisure space and improved transport links. Those who buy a new home here are buying into a fantastic development and into a flourishing local community.”
For further information on Queensgate, where prices for a two-bedroom apartment start from £230,000 and for a three-bedroom house with two balconies, en-suite shower room and garage, from just £380,000, visit the Fairview New Homes website at fairview.co.uk.
For those who are planning to save the house hunting for Christmas break, all Fairview sales offices will be open over the holiday period except from 22nd December to Boxing Day.
