Edgware becomes magnet for commuters

For those seeking a home that benefits from being within a commutable distance from central London, Belstone Homes highlights that, due to it being situated just five minutes walk from Edgware Tube, which has journey times into central London of just 30 minutes, its Signature development in Edgware has become a magnet for professional commuters.

The popularity of living in a London suburb and commuting into the Capital is highlighted by The Rail Passengers Council, who illustrate that London commuter lines have increased by 53 per cent since 1996. Furthermore, a recent report by The Corporation of London claims that a new breed of commuters are looking to the outskirts of cities and towns, as it brings with it the benefit of suburban living at a more affordable price.

Commuting on overcrowded tubes and buses is a daily part of most people’s lives and can often be the single biggest cause of stress for many people, but residents living at the end of tube lines in the suburbs get all the advantages of London-at-arm’s-length, while benefiting from a more relaxed lifestyle and pleasant country and town atmosphere.

Trevor Britton, Managing Director of Belstone Homes comments: "With a wide range of shops, restaurants sporting and leisure facilities, the suburb of Edgware is an ideal location for commuters of all ages. Living a bit further away from the centre of London means not only are house prices more affordable but, being at the end of a tube line means that you can enjoy less crowded tubes and a less stressful commute.”

Signature by Belstone Homes is a stylish collection of 17 high specification one and two bedroom apartments located on a tree lined plot close to Edgware’s High Street. The development has proved extremely popular and now just seven two bedroom apartments remain – each one benefiting from a balcony or roof terrace. The homes also offer a stylish specification with designer fitted kitchens, fully integrated stainless steel appliances and a choice of stylish ceramic wall and floor titles. Bathrooms and ensuites benefit from contemporary bathroom suites with elegant chrome heated towel rails and a choice of ceramic wall and floor tiles.

Secure allocated underground parking spaces come with each home and the majority have the added advantage of a terrace or balcony. The overall effect is a stylish, low maintenance home that is perfect for any lifestyle.

Situated on Edgware’s High Street, Signature is excellently located to take advantage of everything this vibrant area has to offer including an array of bars and restaurants, a large Sainsbury’s, an LA fitness and Edgware’s shopping centre, The Mall. For fitness fanatics, there are three other gyms in addition to LA Fitness located within a mile of the development, plus several golf courses, tennis and squash courts and horse riding facilities in the surrounding area. The development is also located close to Stonegrove Park which boasts seven acres of quiet parkland.

Edgware benefits from excellent transport links. The London suburb is the last stop on the Northern line which provides journeys into central London in just 30 minutes and the M1 is moments away connecting the rest of the UK.

All one bedroom apartments have now been sold, a limited number of two-bedroom apartments remain with prices starting at £377,000. For further information contact the selling agents Preston Bennett or visit Belstonehomes.com.
