The launch of Brooklyn Apartments, Family Mosaic's chic new
development in Blackheath Road SE13, provides a golden opportunity
for first-time buyers to access everything that's best about living
in London. Wonderfully positioned close to two of London's most
glorious open spaces, yet ultra-convenient for commuting into the
city, Brooklyn Apartments offers the ultimate in contemporary urban
living.
"London locations don't come much better than this," says Debbie
Coombs of Family Mosaic. "Brooklyn Apartments offers an exciting
combination of urban buzz and semi-rural charm, contemporary
glamour and world-renowned heritage. It's a combination that's hard
to find, and shared ownership makes it genuinely affordable. We are
delighted to be offering a top location at great prices without
compromising on quality or desirability."
The collection of just eleven apartments - 6 one bedroom and 5 two
bedroom - is situated just half a mile from the atmospheric centre
of Greenwich, famous for its maritime history, its royal Park (the
oldest in London), the spectacular grandeur of Wren's Royal Naval
College and unique attractions such as the Cutty Sark and the
National Maritime Museum. Half a mile up the road is quaint and
coveted Blackheath, a picturesque village facing the huge green
swathe of Blackheath Common, the perfect place for exercise or
relaxation.
Greenwich and Blackheath offer the ultimate choice of shops,
markets, restaurants, bars and cafes - everything the discerning
urbanite could wish for. Yet with Deptford Bridge DLR station just
a four-minute walk away, Brooklyn Apartments couldn't be handier
for fast access to the City, making it the perfect location for
work as well as play.
Next year the location is set to become the focus of worldwide
interest - and envy - as a major site for the London Olympics.
Greenwich Park will be hosting equestrian events, while DLR
services from Deptford Bridge run direct to Stamford station, the
location of the Olympic Park.
Brooklyn Apartments boasts a superb specification and features
high-quality fittings, including a comprehensive range of Zanussi
kitchen appliances; a wall-mounted shower, mirror, glass shelves,
cabinet and ceramic floor tiles in the bathroom; oak flooring in
the living areas; and Wilton carpet in the bedrooms. Each apartment
has its own full balcony or Juliet balcony and access to secure
bicycle storage.
You might imagine that such an apartment in such a location would
near at the top of the property ladder, but Family Mosaic's
shared-ownership scheme means that Brooklyn Apartments represents
unbelievable value.
Under the scheme, which allows qualifying buyers to purchase a
percentage of the property and pay rent on the balance, a
one-bedroom apartment at Brooklyn Apartments costs from just
£68,250 for a 35% share, which has a full market value of £195,000.
Buyers can increase their share by as little as 10% at any time,
all the way to 100%. To be eligible for the scheme, they need to be
either living or working in the local area, and earning less than
£60,000 a year, with minimum incomes set for single buyers and
joint buyers.
The development has been designated a car-free scheme, meaning
that only disabled badge-holders may purchase a residents' parking
permit for the area. However, this is no disadvantage, given the
excellent public transport on the development's doorstep. From
Deptford Bridge Station, Greenwich is just three minutes away,
Canary Wharf is 16 minutes away and Liverpool Street Station is 26
minutes away. It takes 11 minutes to walk to New Cross station,
from where trains to Waterloo take 17 minutes. And a plethora of
bus routes serves a range of destinations, including the local
centres of Greenwich and Blackheath, Peckham, Westminster and
Elephant & Castle.
