Show apartment opens at the Lockhouse - Camden

Barratt’s West London development, The Lockhouse, Oval Road, on the banks of the Regent’s Canal, has been a phenomenal success and continues to be so.

With over 50 per cent of the development sold off-plan, a further three reservations were made at the recent launch of the two-bedroom show apartment designed by Honky, one of the UK’s leading interior designers.

The Lockhouse comprises 115 one, two and three-bedroom apartments; many with balconies or terraces which will overlook the canal or the split-level landscaped courtyard which forms part of the development. It provides a new benchmark in metropolitan living with a sleek, elegant façade, large windows and exceptionally stylish, contemporary interiors. Solar roof panels, which move according to the sun’s position, will maximise the solar power that supplements the development’s electricity supply. There is also a residents’ fitness room and a 24-hour, seven day a week, concierge service.

“One of the key factors in the success of The Lockhouse is its unbeatable location,” comments Adam Lawrence, Barratt’s Regional Chairman. “Regent’s Canal is on the doorstep and it’s easy to walk to Regent’s Park and Camden High Street, which offers plenty of nightlife. There’s a range of fabulous local markets including Canal Market and Stables Market, one of London’s leading tourist attractions. Camden has become a Mecca for artists, designers, film makers and those who work in the television and music industries. It’s not surprising that a new development in this area has such tremendous appeal.”

Apart from being situated in a colourful, cosmopolitan area, The Lockhouse is conveniently located within walking distance of Camden Town underground station, providing links to both the tube and rail networks. There are direct services to Euston, King’s Cross and Waterloo from Camden Road railway station and it’s easy to head east or west on the Silverlink Metro.

Off plan buyers at The Lockhouse have included young professionals, parents buying for their children and investors who appreciate the potential for long-term capital growth in this area.

Apartments at The Lockhouse start at £349,995 and will be available for occupation from summer 2008.
