Reimagine London Living With a City Oasis at Lombard Square

Peabody

While natural play spaces, a wildlife pond and a large lawn area aren't the norm for London living, they are at the heart of what sets Lombard Square in Plumstead apart. Set within 1.8 acres of immersive green space and surrounded by lakes, canals and rich parkland, Peabody New Homes is creating a city oasis in one of the capital's most up and coming neighbourhoods. Unlocking life in the capital for aspiring homebuyers, Peabody New Homes has recently launched its collection of Shared Ownership homes at the development.

   

Lombard Square unveils a new community of one and two-bedroom apartments designed with comfort in mind. Spacious open plan spaces provide the flexibility to cater for a variety of modern lifestyles, whilst stylish and practical features are integrated throughout. White speckled Silestone worktops, Cashmere handleless kitchen cabinets and a range of high-quality integrated appliances ensure kitchens are ready for those looking to prepare a range of culinary creations. Further enhancing the sense of tranquillity on offer at Lombard Square, luxuriously carpeted bedrooms and sleek tiled bathrooms combine to create the ideal spot to unwind at the end of a busy day.

Providing even more to enjoy beyond the home's interior, the development hosts a selection of on-site amenities and communal spaces. Those looking to smash their next fitness goals can join the independently managed gym on-site and create a varied workout routine that utilises the latest equipment. Providing a friendly face and a secure spot to receive parcels and packages, a 12-hour concierge service offers a range of support. Adding to the sense of convenience, shops, cafes and a supermarket can all be found right on the doorstep.

   

Terence O'Connor, Head of Sales for Lombard Square at Peabody New Homes comments: “Located between the rich history of Greenwich and Woolwich to the west and the emerging rejuvenation of Thamesmead in the east, Plumstead sits at the crossroads of some of the capital's most exciting communities. Blending abundant greenery with excellent transport links into the city centre, Lombard Square will deliver a more accessible route for prospective homebuyers to enjoy the best of both worlds. 

Providing a more relaxed way to experience life in the capital, Lombard Square's location in Plumstead means buyers are within easy reach of plenty of blue and green spaces. Less than a mile away, Plumstead Common blends avenues of trees, swaying grasslands and an assortment of sports pitches. To the north of the development, the Thames Path offers waterside walks and cycles, and hosts a parkrun event every Saturday morning. A little further afield, Woolwich Common and Greenwich Park can be reached in 16 and 23 minutes by bike respectively.

Complementing the amenities available on-site, Plumstead's rejuvenated high street is lined with independent cafes, shops and restaurants that provide a wide selection of everyday essentials within easy reach. A short walk away, Royal Arsenal Riverside is a popular hotspot for locals and visitors. Brimming with creativity, the buzzing waterside destination hosts everything from farmers markets and yoga classes to alfresco dining and cultural performances. With Plumstead located within the Royal Borough of Greenwich, some of the borough's top attractions are just moments away including entertainment at the O2, history at the Cutty Sark and a plethora of quirky bars and unique shops.

While Lombard Square's green backdrop makes it easy to forget the development's location within the city, transport connections into the city centre are never far away. Just four minutes' walk away, Plumstead Station provides connections to London Bridge, Blackfriars and King's Cross in 25 minutes, 33 minutes and 39 minutes respectively. Providing further options to explore, nearby Woolwich hosts DLR and Elizabeth Line services towards Canary Wharf, Canning Town and Heathrow Airport.

Pricing at Lombard Square starts from £100,500 for a 30% share of a one-bedroom apartment and from £112,500 for a 25% of a two-bedroom apartment. Find your place at Lombard Square at https://www.peabodynewhomes.co.uk/find-a-home/lombard-square/
