Nestled in a leafy corner of North London, award-winning housebuilder The Hill Group and leading housing association Peabody are soon to launch North Gate Park, a new and exciting neighbourhood for the capital. Located in Harringay, this vibrant and sustainable community will comprise up to 995 new homes with an array of amenities on the doorstep.
North Gate Park is a historic site and within this regeneration and placemaking project, each element of the original site will be well-preserved. A selection of the original Victorian buildings are being restored, and the new community will have access to an impressive range of proposed amenities which could include an on-site concierge, café, nursery, health clinic and dental surgery. What’s more, the iconic water tower is set for regeneration too, carefully preserving its time-honoured heritage.
North Gate Park will be a hidden pocket of nature in the city. Mulberry Gardens, a magnificent, verdant garden at the heart of the development, further enriches the lifestyle experience here. The garden will be designed and restored in a partnership with The Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew and will serve as a central green space for residents to come together, relax and enjoy nature. Hill and Peabody are increasing the green space here by three times the size of the existing garden, boosting the biodiversity of the area. Originally dating back to 1920, the current garden was landscaped by a Kew Gardens horticulturalist.
This new landmark mixed-used development will provide a collection of houses and apartments. 60% of the much-needed homes will be affordable, available through Shared Ownership, London Affordable Rent or London Living Rent. A collection of one and two-bedroom apartments situated in the first two buildings at North Gate Park, known as Marram House and Foxtail House, are currently exclusively available to residents in the London Boroughs of Haringey and Hackney, with a broader launch set for November 2024.
Rebecca Littler, Group Sales and Marketing Director at The Hill Group comments: “The historic regeneration of North Gate Park is a rewarding and exciting venture for us. The contemporary new homes will carefully blend with the existing beautiful Victorian architecture, as we embrace the history of this unique part of London. Working alongside Peabody, we’re proud to be providing much-needed housing in the area, while also making sustainability central to the project. We anticipate this hidden, green oasis with great links to the city will be popular with those wanting to put roots on the ground in London.”
Lisa Crush, Group Sales Director at Peabody adds: “We are thrilled to continue our successful collaboration with Hill on this landmark regeneration project. Unveiling North Gate Park as a spirited and sustainable neighbourhood in North London is a proud moment for us. With many affordable homes, we’re making the dream of homeownership in London a reality for countless aspiring homeowners that need to be close to the centre of the city.”
The restored, traditional architecture will seamlessly blend with the new modern homes at North Gate Park. Stylish and sophisticated interiors reflective of the area’s love of design and culture will appeal to prospective buyers. An array of different property types are available. From one, two and three-bedroom apartments to three and four-bedroom houses, each home will also have its own outside space to enjoy, essential in today’s modern living. All homes have spacious open plan living and dining areas, and residents can choose from a variety of flexible layouts to match their lifestyles.
The woodland nearby that borders the Tottenham railway has been identified as a Site of Importance of Nature Conservation (SINC) and will be extended and protected for this project. Beyond the development, residents can enjoy the serenity of other surrounding green spaces including award-winning Chestnuts Park and the renowned Finsbury Park, both less than a mile away.
Quiet footpaths provide room to roam within the development and residents will benefit from the exceptional transport links in the area. The new collection of homes is in a superb Zone 3 location, just a short walk from the new Harringay Green Lanes overground station. A brand-new link road will provide swift access to Harringay Underground station, which has a journey time of just 16 minutes to Moorgate. There are also good bus links from this area into the heart of central London.
Harringay’s rich heritage can be seen in the characterful buildings that line the high street, residential roads and artisan corners. With fabulous food options and independent shops in the colourful and creative hub of Green Lanes offers an exciting lifestyle with a palpable community feel. The buzzing North London locality is also well-connected for entertainment, with the iconic Alexandra Palace close by.
Prices at North Gate Park start from £399,950. For more information, please visit the website here, or please call 02080996397 or email [email protected] to register your interest.
