Apartments offering a refined and metropolitan lifestyle are about to arrive in Sutton, as large-scale mixed-use development, Sutton Point, is being launched this month by CNM Estates. The new landmark development comprises beautifully designed towers which provide space for 332 residential apartments, over 21,000 sq. ft. of retail and 18,000 sq. ft. of office space, combined with a 150 bed hotel and serviced apartments.
Sutton combines historical roots with a future-focused town centre and vibrant community, which has cemented its status as one of the most up-and-coming London boroughs. The first phase to be launched is a collection of 116 premium apartments ranging from studios up to three bedroom penthouses, located in the main Central Tower. The new homes are available to purchase through Knight Frank and Barnard Marcus, with prices starting from £280,000.
Help to Buy is also available on all apartments in the first phase up to £600,000, making this an excellent proposition for first time buyers or those wanting to move up the property ladder.
Discussing the launch of Sutton Point, Alastair Young, Sales and Marketing Director at CNM Estates, comments, “Sutton Point occupies an unbeatable site when it comes to location, and I expect it to be exceptionally popular with those who regularly commute to London using Sutton’s fast rail links.”
“The apartments are of incredible quality and are right in the heart of the town, meaning the amenities and attractions of Sutton are always within close reach. Family-friendly Sutton is one of London’s greenest boroughs with excellent schools, and families and young professionals alike will be drawn to the large floorplates and amenities offered by the development.”
Through meticulous consideration and detailing, the Sutton Point residences provide open-plan living spaces with views over the countryside and London. Each apartment provides considerable storage and a range of kitchen work surfaces and flooring options. Featuring a dedicated concierge, Sutton Point has an array of communal facilities that cater to the wellbeing of all residents.
Sutton Point will be a key element to the ongoing regeneration of Sutton, underpinned by the Sutton Plan, which is a borough-wide initiative ensuring a high quality of life is maintained as the area experiences population growth. But while it is contemporary and agile, Sutton is also an ancient town steeped in a rich and varied history.
It was first recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086 with a population of 150 people and became popular in the 18th century when intersecting roads were built through the town. The road became a thoroughfare for gentry using it to travel from their country homes to the city, and coaching inns sprung up in the town. In turn, it also became popular with highwaymen who knew that wealthy individuals used the road frequently.
Today Sutton maintains the excellent transport links it was famed for in the past, with regular direct rail services to London Victoria (25 minutes), Clapham Junction (18 minutes), London Blackfriars (33 minutes) and St Pancras International (43 minutes). Sutton is situated in TfL Zone 5 and annual season tickets start from £1,764. The development is also under half an hour’s drive to Gatwick Airport and only 40 minutes to Heathrow Airport.
In addition to its close proximity to Sutton Railway Station, Sutton Point is also just a stone’s throw from the town centre, which is currently the centre of extensive regeneration. Residents at Sutton Point will be able to access the various retail outlets, restaurants, cafes and leisure facilities of the town with ease.
Sutton is already a desirable borough, with one of the lowest crime rates in Greater London and an ‘excellent’ Ofsted rating for every secondary school. Additionally, the recent launch of the expansive Sutton Plan will ensure that the borough continues to be an excellent place to live and work, with a strong focus on residents’ wellbeing. The multi-million pound scheme will see Sutton’s housing, transport and community hubs developed to meet the expected population growth in the future, along with several other commitments by the council to continue building the community.
Chris Jones, Associate at Knight Frank, comments, “Sutton Point represents a piece of London lifestyle at a great value price point, with excellent transport connections. With one of the fastest-growing property markets, now is a great time to invest in a home in the town, and to make the most of its community-orientated ethos and wonderful schools and amenities. We have received a lot of interest in this development and expect the apartments to be sold quickly.”
Set to fully launch in June 2018, the residential apartments at Sutton Point are available from £280,000. For more information, contact CNM Estates on 020 8390 9265 or visit www.suttonpoint.co.uk
