Housing Association L&Q is releasing one and two bedroom shared ownership units to residents of Hounslow Borough in the first phase of sales in the massive Kew Bridge Rise development.

The scheme which is on the border of Brentford and Chiswick by Capital Interchange Way and the Fountains Leisure Centre will eventually comprise 5 towers of up to 15 storeys high containing a total of 441 flats.

Further shared ownership units will be released later in the year to buyers across a broader area of west London and then more widely in 2025. You must not own another home at the time of purchase and have a household income that does not exceed £90,000.

This new residential complex offers a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, designed by Hawkins/Brown and developed by the Hill Group. It includes a variety of amenities, such as a gym, co-working spaces, and a concierge service. Shared ownership flats will come with access to all the on-site facilities. A nursery is also due to open in the grounds.

Just under half of the units in the development will be classed as affordable with 152 offered on a shared ownership basis and 66 for affordable rent. The first phase will be ready to move into in early 2025, with the project due to be complete sometime in 2026.

Prices start from £107,500 for a 25% share of a one-bedroom apartment (full market price £430,000) and £132,500 for a 25% share of a two-bedroom apartment (full market price £530,000).

Smaller units can be acquired with a deposit as low as £10,750 and service charges start at £3,000 a year. Monthly rents start at £618 to which must be added the borrowing costs of the loan taken out to pay for the capital element.

Private sale apartments at Kew Bridge Rise are currently available through The Hill Group from prices ranging from £485,000 to £755,000.

Claire Brenlund, Sales and Marketing Director at L&Q, said, “As well as being located in a very desirable pocket of west London and complete with a huge range of outstanding amenities onsite, the top-of-the-range homes offer a significantly elevated living experience at a much more affordable price point – with deposits starting from just £10,750.

"It’s a very exciting opportunity for home hunters currently looking in the Borough of Hounslow, and we’re expecting to see high levels of interest from Hounslow first-time buyers this summer, before applications are opened to buyers from across west London later this year.”

Kitchens with stone worktops are complete with fully integrated appliances, including an oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and induction hob, while full height windows illuminate living rooms, styled with Amtico flooring. In each apartment, a washer/dryer is housed in a large storage cupboard. Principal bedrooms feature fitted mirrored wardrobes and are complete with an en-suite bathroom. Each apartment comes with underfloor heating, private outdoor space, and access to the communal roof terrace.

The flats are all fitted with high efficiency aluminium timber composite windows, and heating is supplied via a communal air source heat pump.
