New family homes: trendy urban homes with terraces launched in Maida Vale
Developers know we all love a modern mews house, designed to let in far more light than traditional versions and set in quiet, secure spots.
The Villas offers eight freehold houses in a former builder’s yard tucked away off Harrow Road. The designer metal entrance gate leads to a landscaped courtyard and handsome Danish brick frontages with floor-to-ceiling glass and very high-spec interiors.
The developer here is Colin Serlin, one of the London loft “godfathers” who kick-started factory conversion in east London more than 25 years ago, popularising trendy urban living in redundant commercial buildings such as Bow Quarter and the old Bryant & May match factory.
The latest luxury new homes
A short walk from Maida Vale, The Villas will appeal to design-conscious urbanites, including young families. The three-bedroom houses have underfloor and solar heating, a clean-air ventilation system and a basement with an “engine room”/utility area.
Each house is cabled for CCTV and entertainment systems, and also has a terrace and private parking.
Prices from £1.25 million to £1.65 million. Call Aston Chase on 020 7724 4724.
