Greenwich is a town with an abundance of beauty, great connectivity and entertainment - a UNESCO World Heritage Site that anchors a refreshing vision of culture, history, wildlife and architecture[1]. Continuing to embrace international cuisines and cultures all on the banks of the Thames, Greenwich evidently carries an attractive aura. On 29th September, leading housing provider, Peabody, launched Telegraph Works, a stylish and conveniently located development for young professionals, couples and families.

The striking development comprises a collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, all available through Shared Ownership. Prices will start from £105,300 for a 30 per cent share of a one-bedroom apartment.

Telegraph Works is a well-served development for connectivity. North Greenwich tube station, the nearest station for all major connections, is just seven-minute bike ride away from the development[2]. Shopping on Bond Street or the bright lights of the West End is a mere 17 minutes away on the Jubilee Line. Residents can reach Canary Wharf in just eight minutes via the Jubilee Line, whilst London Bridge is a swift nine minutes away. The area boasts further connectivity with its DLR services, with Greenwich DLR station just an eight-minute cycle away from the development[3]. For those commuting into the City, Bank is just 22-minute train ride away via the DRL. 

Andrew Peglau, Head of Marketing at Peabody comments: “Telegraph Works is a striking new development that has lots to offer young professionals and families. Its historic location and glorious green spaces will give residents that high-quality London lifestyle they are seeking, at an attainable price.”

All apartments are finished to a high specification, equipped with quality fixtures and fittings that complement the contemporary styling and architecture of the development. Oakwood Laminate flooring spread across the living areas, while 80/20 wool mix carpet can be found in the bedrooms. Integrated appliances are found throughout the kitchen, while both bathrooms and en suites feature chrome heated towel rails and are made up of grey tiled flooring and walls. Additional perks include access to parking spaces and aesthetically pleasing architectural back drops from the landscaped communal gardens.

On the social scene, the Pelton Arms pub is just a few minutes' walk away, the central hub for those looking to indulge in home cooked food, live bands, cosy open fires and beer gardens in the Summer months. Greenwich Peninsula has also established itself as a hub for both recreation and retail - home to an IMAX cinema and retail parks with a variety of high street stores. Additionally, Greenwich town centre is just a 20-minute walk[4] along the Thames from the development, where residents can find a plethora of bars, cafes and restaurants, such as The Trafalgar Tavern Park - a stunning riverside restaurant serving traditional British dishes, and The Sail Loft, the perfect lunch stop on the tourist trail.

Greenwich Park is a 10-minute walk away from Telegraph Works[5], the prime spot for enjoying the weekend reading a book or spending time with friends and family, the slopes of the park offering the perfect view of the sunset over the River Thames and old Greenwich below. The expansive green space is also home to The National Maritime Museum, Greenwich Royal Observatory and Queens House all on the doorstep of the development.  The 183 acres also plays host to beautiful avenues of mature trees, flower and orchard gardens, as well as the popular Pavilion Café, a covered market and some of London's finest and most authentic pubs and bars.

Prices start at £129,000 for a 30 per cent share of a two-bedroom. Prices for a 30 per cent share of a three-bedroom apartment start £166,500.
