Moving On Up: Stepping Up The Ladder In Hammersmith
22 Aug 2016

Between Hammersmith and Chiswick – overlooking Ravenscourt Park – there’s a brand new opportunity for Londoners to move on up the housing ladder.

Linden Homes has created Kings Row, in W6. This is a stylish collection of brand new contemporary apartments and townhouses – many of which have lovely views across the Park. The design, by an award-winning architect, offers flexible living with a first class specification: An exciting prospect for someone looking for more space in a great West London location.

However, the possibility of moving house within the city can often be overshadowed by the prospect of having to sell an existing property: All that frantic Saturday morning cleaning and tidying as the weekend viewings commence…and all that stress over broken property chains… lost buyers…and estate agent fees.

Linden Homes devised its Part Exchange Scheme* to remove this stressful part of moving house. Under the scheme they will become your guaranteed cash buyer freeing you to go ahead and buy your new home at Kings Row.

Claire Gibbins is the Sales and Marketing Director at Linden Homes South East:

“It’s a really simple process. You choose your new home and we instruct local estate agents to value your existing property. Once a price is agreed, we arrange a survey.

“If it’s satisfactory, we will go ahead and begin marketing it. You won’t have to move out until your new Linden home is ready. You don’t need to worry about property chains or losing your buyer. You buy ours; we buy yours.”

Alternatively, it might be that you are actually looking for a new home that’s smaller than your existing one.

It seems retirees wanting to downsize are now making their way back to the Capital according to a report in the Times, quoting research from estate agents Countrywide.

The report found the number of people over 65 moving into London rose by 8% between 2012 and 2015. The attractions of a new home in the city are numerous: there is no DIY to worry about, it’s well designed, light and spacious, safe and secure, warm, energy efficient and you can easily lock it up and leave if you decide to go on holiday.

Kings Row is ideally located for families, downsizers and professionals because of its superb transport links: Ravenscourt Park tube (Zone 2) is a short walk away; Shepherds Bush railway station is 1.23 miles away and the M4 is within easy reach.

The desirable homes at Kings Row are elegant and luxurious with fully fitted, LED under-lit kitchens and bathrooms. All the apartments have a balcony or a terrace plus concierge service; the townhouses each have a generous private roof terrace.
