The investment case for Gidea Park, London

The investment case for Gidea Park, London

It is our belief that there is a compelling investment case for residential property in Gidea Park, in the London Borough of Havering.

This is underpinned by three factors:

    • Gidea Park Crossrail station is due to open in the area in 2018. Crossrail is currently Europe’s largest infrastructure project and JLL, in their report on Crossrail investment opportunities, forecast the area around the station, which includes our property, to see +43% capital growth over the next 5 years

 

    • Gidea Park is at the border between London & East Anglia. The highly-regarded research team at Knight Frank forecast that these two regions will be among the fastest-growing in the country over the next 5 years, and Gidea Park is ideally-placed to benefit

 

    • Gidea Park is within walking distance of Romford’s town centre. This means Gidea Park also benefits from all the amenities there, including two shopping centres, and a large street market

 

Crossrail: Europe’s largest infrastructure project

Crossrail is a new high-speed railway line crossing London, running from Reading in the West to Brentwood in the East, and is also Europe’s largest current infrastructure project. The line increases London’s train capacity by 10%.

Gidea Park will be home to one of the new Crossrail stations, and JLL recently issued a report forecasting +43% capital growth within a 750m radius of that station over the next 5 years.

The Best Of London and the East

Knight Frank forecast capital growth, over the next five years, of +25.8% for London and +22.2% for East-Anglia. These two regions are selected, by Knight Frank’s highly-regarded research team, as two of the four fastest-growing in the country.

Gidea Park is located on the border between London & East-Anglia. Part of the borough actually used to be classified as Essex rather than London. As such, we view it as a good hedge between the areas

Gidea Park is extremely well-located

The Mercury shopping centre and The Liberty shopping centre of Romford town, are just a 5-7 minute drive away. Gidea Park is also well-connected by road, being within a 10-minute drive from London’s ring road, the M25.

Gidea Park’s favourable location and connections should make the area highly attractive to tenants.
