Located in North West London within Zone 2, North West Quarter is part of South Kilburn, close to the traditional affluent areas of the Royal Borough of Kensington, Chelsea, and Westminster. North West Quarter is set to be completed in 2026, which implies a huge potential for property value appreciation. North West Quarter is in a prime location in Queen’s Park, with a prestigious NW6 postcode, and close to the Bakerloo line, providing direct access to central London within half an hour. The area offers a beautiful environment with a wide range of amenities and a rental return of 5%*, which is higher than the neighbouring areas. The brand-new phase of North West Quarter is now available for sale in Hong Kong for the first time, and is definitely a rare investment opportunity in London.
South Kilburn is very close to central London and benefits from a 15-year large-scale community redevelopment programme by Brent Council. The project began in 2018 and will be completed around 2033. The redevelopment project includes the construction of 2,400 high-quality homes, new medical and retail facilities, schools, and urban parks and public spaces. The redevelopment project aims to transform the area into a vibrant, sustainable, and desirable place to live and work. The redevelopment project offers significant potential for property appreciation in South Kilburn, with CBRE research statistics indicating that property prices in the redevelopment area are rising by an average of 3.6%* per annum. Additionally, Brent’s five-year average property price growth forecast of 22%* is higher than London’s 19%*.
The prestigious NW6 postcode further demonstrates the prime location of North West Quarter. The project boasts convenient transportation and complete living facilities, with an average property price of about £1.4 million*, lower than that of the London city centre. As a result, it has gained popularity among young professionals. A one-bedroom unit in North West Quarter starts from £550,000*, while a two-bedroom unit starts from £725,000*. Compared to neighbouring upscale residential areas such as Maida Vale, the prices are quite reasonable, making the project a popular investment choice in NW6. Additionally, with lower property management fees and zero ground rent, the daily expenses for property owners are significantly reduced, resulting in lower entry barriers and the opportunity to acquire high-value assets at the best price for immediate investment.
Foxtons predicts a high annual rental yield of 5% for North West Quarter, surpassing other properties in the same area, including the fashionable residential area of Maida Vale, favoured by the affluent. Maida Vale is known for its proximity to the famous Abbey Road, Georgian-style buildings, and tree-lined avenues that were immortalised on the iconic album cover of The Beatles. It attracts numerous visitors daily who come to take photos. The neighbourhood where Maida Vale is located is called “Little Venice” due to the picturesque scenery along the streets flanking the Grand Union Canal and Regent’s Canal, adorned with green trees. It also features a variety of distinctive restaurants, cafes, and bars, making it a favourite among middle-class British families, leading to high rental demand. However, Maida Vale currently has no new properties available on the market. Therefore, middle-class individuals who desire to live in the Maida Vale area have naturally turned their attention to the similarly attractive North West Quarter, making it an ideal choice for investment or buying property for rental purposes.
Located in the popular residential area of Queen’s Park, the project benefits from convenient transportation with multiple bus routes and underground stations, allowing easy access to central London and surrounding areas. North West Quarter is only a 5-minute^ walk from Queen’s Park underground station. From there, a 7-minute^ ride on the Bakerloo Line takes you to Paddington station, where you can transfer to various underground lines such as the Hammersmith & City Line, Circle Line, and District Line, providing connections to different destinations. Queen’s Park underground station is a 14-minute^ journey to the shoppers’ paradise at Oxford Circus, and it takes approximately 22 minutes^ to 32 minutes^ to reach the core business districts of Bank and Canary Wharf. Furthermore, the area is served by multiple bus routes, and there is a bus stop at the project entrance, allowing easy access to Hyde Park and Victoria Station via Bus Number 6. Additionally, the location provides convenient transportation to airports, with City Airport, Gatwick Airport, and Heathrow Airport all reachable within an hour. Whether it’s transportation options or travel time, North West Quarter can be considered as convenient and well-connected as Zone 1.
The South Kilburn redevelopment plan includes environmental greening, so there are many green areas around North West Quarter, including several famous parks such as Queen’s Park, Hyde Park, Hampstead Heath, and Regent’s Park. Queen’s Park is a 7-minute^ walk away and offers park facilities such as a children’s playground, a French boule skating rink, and a Quiet Garden, catering to various leisure needs. By taking the Bakerloo underground line, you can reach Regent’s Park, a Grade I protected park with the largest grassland in central London, in just 12 minutes^. It provides residents with a retreat from the urban hustle and bustle. Adjacent to Regent’s Park is Lord’s Cricket Ground, one of the most famous and historically significant cricket venues worldwide, hosting numerous historic matches.
