Boutique apartment scheme on The Bishops Avenue, Crossways, by property developer Niveda Realty, presents exceptional lateral living for the discerning downsizer; at a time when property prices are set to rise in central London and local agents are urging buyers to make their move.

The beautiful apartments, designed by luxury architectural interior design studio, Oliver Burns, comprise seven opulent three-bedroom apartments and two three-bedroom penthouses, ranging in size from 1,500 to 2,200 square feet and offer uncompromising levels of space, style and security.

With prices starting from £2.25million, the scheme is setting a competitive price point for one of London's most iconic streets, where the average property price usually hits the £8million mark. Crossways is a rare opportunity for older buyers and retirees looking to invest in their future and buy a home in one of the UK's most coveted postcodes.

Lauren Abrahmsohn, Business Manager, Glentree estate agents comments: “We believe that local downsizers will find all their needs met with Crossways. We are already securing interest from couples and singles who are living in larger houses in the locality, seeking to move to lateral living spaces once their children have left home. One of the main advantages is that locals can stay in the area they love whilst benefitting from great lifestyle conveniences. We anticipate that sales will come from buyers who are looking for two to three bedroom apartments with enough space to continue entertaining friends and family.”

Sharon Lillywhite, Founding Partner at Oliver Burns adds: “The lure of lateral living has been steadily on the rise amongst our clientele. The appeal of a single-level home is largely down to how space is utilised and maximised. In the absence of stairs and hallways, Crossways offers flexible living and entertaining areas, ensuring buyers are only paying for the space they really want and need. From the colour palette through to lighting and acoustics, these luxurious residences have been thoughtfully designed with the discerning downsizer in mind.” 

The interiors will boast a spacious layout, soft tones and bright accents that embrace the natural light flooding in through large sash windows. Creating a visually striking contrast are the dark oak engineered herringbone floors. The open-plan living and dining space creates the perfect ambience for family get-togethers or social gatherings with friends and leads onto a private balcony. Catering to the culinary needs of residents is the bespoke British-made kitchen with a sleek interplay of materials and state-of-the-art Miele appliances.

Wide corridors lead to the apartments' bedrooms, which all feature high-quality faux silk carpets and Hansgrohe-designed, en-suite bathrooms with underfloor heating, porcelain floor and wall tiles, under-mounted bath with marble top and bespoke 'mist-free' mirrored cabinets including LED lighting. Adding to the safety aspects of the development, Niveda has incorporated a state-of-the art video entry system, intruder alarm, multi-point locking entrance doors and CCTV. Residents benefit from services such as a concierge and secure underground parking with two spaces per apartment as well as electric car points and private balconies.

Lauren continues: “People want to be able to go away with peace of mind knowing their home is secure and that upkeep is being looked after by managing agents. They are looking for a certain level of luxury and quality in the finish, private outdoor space and ideally underground parking. Developments near to public transport links, shops and restaurants are also sought-after as buyers will be very much form a part of the community. All this can be found at Crossways.”
