Studios offer stylish solution to city living

Whether a starter home for singletons or pied-à-terre for busy city workers who don’t want to waste time on commuting, the studio apartment is a stroke of design genius for those seeking their place in the right location.

And with demand high for these stylish homes, George Wimpey East London’s Invito development close to Gants Hill Underground Station is attracting a wealth of customers keen to enjoy the many benefits of owning a studio.

“Studio apartments are an ideal solution for those wanting a new home in a popular area at an affordable price,” says Tina Dedman, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for George Wimpey.

“They’re also great fun to furnish; it’s easy to create an amazing living space straight out of the pages of a style magazine!”

Studio apartments at Invito start at just £112,995 and feature a light and airy living room/bedroom, a kitchen fitted with contemporary units and a built-in oven, hob and hood, a separate bathroom and a storage closet.

To complement this layout, George Wimpey offers customers its stunning Options range – a beautiful selection of interior design features and fittings, including downlighters, and superb carpets and floorings.

The tasteful interior styles are the perfect partner to the bright, contemporary class of Invito’s exterior architecture, and many of the homes at the development enjoy panoramic cityscape views over London’s great landmarks, including the London Eye, the Gherkin and the site of the 2012 Olympic village.

Gants Hill itself is home to a range of stores, cafes, restaurants and bars, while Ilford, just two miles away, offers an excellent shopping centre. For leisure, Fairlop Waters in nearby Barkingside is an ideal place for a round of golf, wind-surfing, angling, sailing or horse riding.

The apartments are also just minutes from Gants Hill Underground Station, and only five stops from Stratford, ensuring purchasers are perfectly placed for Docklands, The City and for the 2012 Games.

George Wimpey offers an attractive range of tailor-made incentives for first-time buyers, investors and those with a property to sell, including help with deposit, solicitor and estate agents fees.

Further information is available by visiting the Sales Centre, located off Bramley Crescent, Gants Hill and open Thursdays to Mondays from 10am to 6pm, or online at Georgewimpey.co.uk.
