Weston Homes has announced the launch of its unique and remarkable private island development in Uxbridge, King’s Island, a collection of new build and conversion homes of 24 three and four bedroom family houses and 127 one and two bedroom apartments in the heart of Uxbridge.

Surrounded by the Grand Union Canal and River Colne, the development will provide a rare level of luxury, quality and prestige in a secure, gated community appealing to families, couples and downsizers alike.

Bob Weston, Chairman and Chief Executive of Weston Homes, comments: “There is a continuing demand for family homes in the UK. King’s Island provides a perfect setting for families, which include some of the finest luxury finishes available on the market today. The new build apartments offer a blend of modern architecture and sympathetic renovation and a level of comfort and style that will last long into the future and are ideal for couples or downsizers.”

Located on former William King Flour Mill site on Willow Avenue, between the countryside and the charming market town of Uxbridge, King’s Island offers community living and relaxation, with a separate foot bridge and private entrance bridge offering access on to the island.

Weston Homes have upgraded their signature high specification exclusively for the houses at King's Island to include ceramic stone floors with under floor heating, timber floors, carpets, choice of bespoke high gloss luxury kitchens with stone work tops and fully integrated appliances and utility rooms.

High specification bathrooms and wet rooms offer stunning wall hung sanitaryware, choice of ceramic wall and floor tiles including mosaic in fills, rear decks, gardens and roof terraces, which offer stunning river, canal or weir views.

The interiors of the apartments boast grand spacious living quarters, creating a calm and relaxed environment. The apartments are stunning examples of modern open plan living, with balconies and terraces to selected plots that provide ample outdoor space for summer evening alfresco dining while soaking up the tranquil river, canal or weir views.

The three and four bedroom homes offer substantial space spread over three/four floors and each feature gardens/decking which offer attractive river, canal or weir views.

Local woodland, shops and pubs are only minutes away from the front of King’s Island, as well as the lazy banks of the Grand Union Canal, River Colne and the local marina.

A 10 minute walk takes you into the heart of Uxbridge, with a wide variety of choice when it comes to shopping, eating and socialising, including boutique stores, welcoming pubs and restaurants, high street names and Randall’s department store. Dedicated shoppers will welcome two modern shopping centres – The Mall and The Chimes. Uxbridge also boasts sport and art facilities, with the new Hillingdon Sports and Leisure Complex having opened last year and the Dominion Arts Education Centre and Contemporaryartwest gallery.

King’s Island is ideally suited for transport links, with its tube station and attached bus terminal.
