Modern apartments in London, buying your first home

Saturday, March 3rd, 2018

Anyone looking for an apartment in London, hoping to own a first home, came across the “shared ownership” option. This is a quite new scheme, that allows you to buy a property only for about 25% of it’s value. So they are part-own, part-rent, quite affordable apartments, the mortgage is not as high as usually required for a property. But there could be some limitations, other costs, e.g service charges, which are not always fixed.

Anyway, the apartments are brand new, ready to move in, with sleek modern design. Kitchens and bathrooms are finished to the highest standard.

Create the look:

I researched only a few development projects, housing assosioations, that offer shared ownership. e.g L&Q at Greenwich Peninsula , but ther are plenty others on smartnewhomes.com website
Inspirational images are from these two websites.

I also came across beautiful modern apartments in Goodluck Hope, an industrially inspired luxury development, founded on a heritage of industry, craft and creativity. Specially commissioned details and carefully sourced decorative elements add a unique signature to each space and room.
