Oval Village set for local launch
The first phase of Oval Village, a two-hectare site transforming the historic Gasworks adjacent to Oval cricket ground in London, will be launched this weekend, here, through Knight Frank Malaysia.
Phase One is known as Phoenix Court and the launch will see the release of 286 Manhattan, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, with sizes ranging from 413 to 1,092 sq ft.
Phoenix Court presents an opportunity for Malaysians to invest in this iconic central London development at the earliest possible stage with homes.
Upon completion, Oval Village will feature 1,350 homes, making it one of the most significant regeneration projects in London.
“Oval Village is tremendously well located for everything Central London has to offer and there is a significant opportunity for capital growth at the phase 1 launch. With so few regeneration sites of this scale left in central London, Oval Village will see the creation of a stunning neighbourhood and vibrant destination,” said Dominic Heaton-Watson, associate director, international residential project marketing, Knight Frank Malaysia.
He said the project was uniquely placed in an area serviced by extensive underground stations, an established network of leisure amenities, retail, restaurants and bars, as well as being a short walk from River Thames.
Oval Village by Berkeley Homes will transform the area into a cultural hub for residents and visitors, through the regeneration of the iconic Oval Gasholders, the provision of commercial spaces and opening up the village with communal landscaped spaces for all to enjoy.
When built in 1847, the Oval Gasholders were the largest of their kind — a magnificent feat of Victorian engineering. Now, the historic site’s restoration and redevelopment marks a new phase in its history, where old will blend with new to create a new London community fit for the 21st century.
Within Oval Village will sit the Generator, presenting six floors of flexible office space, a ground-floor co-working hub, 100,000 sq ft of commercial space, a cafe and a community centre.
Berkeley Homes sales director Simon Howard said: “Oval Village will combine impeccably finished homes with public recreation and working space to create a new kind of neighbourhood with community at its heart. It will offer a sense of village living with all the benefits of being in the centre of London.”
Residents living in Oval Village will benefit from Berkeley Homes’ industry-leading approach to delivering outstanding residential property, where convenience and comfort are paramount.
A 24-hour concierge will serve every apartment. An onsite Tesco Superstore will also ease the burden of the weekly shop.
Within Oval Village itself, world-renowned landscape architects are designing the public realm to create a network of private residents’ gardens.
Berkeley Homes is committed to delivering outstanding, high-spec finish to all of the homes it creates and Oval Village’s interiors will feature a refined and minimalist material palette for a modern look, while also giving a nod to the area’s industrial heritage.
