Sales success at Northpoint in Islington

Another welcome sign of the strengthening property market is the success of Northpoint in the heart of Islington. Since its launch in February this year, this striking development of 32 smart contemporary apartments, by Inspace Homes in partnership with Your Lifespace, has achieved consistently strong sales.

As a result, only two apartments remain for sale and potential buyers are advised to act swiftly.

Sue Gresswell, Sales & Marketing Director for Inspace Homes, comments: “Buyers have undoubtedly been attracted by the quality, value and great location of Northpoint. However, other factors are playing an important part too. Mortgages are now more widely available and we’ve noted a growing trend in parents helping their children buy a home. With interest rates on savings so low, releasing funds to help family members get on to the property ladder makes good sense.”

Interest remains high in the remaining studio and one-bedroom apartments, which are priced from just £180,000 and are ready for immediate occupation. Interiors are fresh and modern with an open-plan design that cleverly uses space to the best effect. The designer Pepper kitchen includes an AEG oven, hob, hood, integrated dishwasher and fridge, and a free standing Zanussi washer/dryer. All floor coverings, kitchen appliances and a fitted bedroom wardrobe are included in the price, giving excellent value for money.

The location of Northpoint has great appeal. The five-storey building is sited on the Essex Road, close to the centre of Islington, which is widely considered as one of the coolest places to live in London. Within striking distance are over 150 restaurants, cafés, gastro pubs, bars and nightclubs, together with fascinating street markets that add to Islington’s eclectic atmosphere.

Northpoint is very well placed for getting around the capital. Immediately outside the development is a bus stop, with very frequent services across London. Angel and Highbury & Islington underground stations are about 15 minutes walk away and trains take just 10 minutes to Oxford Street and 15 minutes to Canary Wharf and Bank. Cyclists will appreciate the cycle store that is included with each apartment and every purchaser receives 12 months free membership of the Streetcar car club.

The Northpoint Marketing Suite and show apartment at Essex Road, Islington N1 3GH are open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm. For more information, visit northpointislington.com. Details of all Inspace Homes developments can be found on inspacehomes.co.uk.
