On Saturday 14th December, Guinness Homes will host a festive Open Day at their northwest London development, The One Hundred in Alperton. At the sales event, hopeful homeowners will get the opportunity to get ahead of one of the busiest times of year for the UK’s property market – Boxing Day. A particularly competitive period for house hunters, property portal Rightmove reported a significant spike in buyer enquiries on Boxing Day 2023, with almost double the amount of users browsing available homes.* Visitors at The One Hundred’s Christmas sales event will be able to reserve a home on the day, beating the festive rush.
The Open Day will give prospective buyers the chance to view the attractive collection of Shared Ownership homes in-person, as well as speak to Guinness’ friendly sales team and receive independent financial advice from specialist mortgage brokers, Censeo Financial. Refreshments will also be available.
A brand-new canalside development in the heart of Alperton, The One Hundred is a collection of 51 one-, two- and three-bedroom Shared Ownership apartments, with many homes ready to move into in the new year. Shared Ownership is an alternative home ownership scheme which allows buyers to purchase a share of a property, usually between 25% – 75%, and pay subsidised rent on the remaining portion. A more affordable route onto the property ladder, Shared Ownership homes typically require much lower deposits and monthly repayments than purchasing on the open market.
London Sales Manager at Guinness Homes, Hellyn Fairbrother, comments: “We’re already seeing high levels of interest at The One Hundred, and so we’re expecting a huge increase in enquiries as we head into this busy festive period. The Open Day event will be a brilliant opportunity for potential purchasers to see the development in-person, speak to our teams and make an early reservation, ahead of the Boxing Day buzz. All of our apartments on-site are ready to move into straightaway, ideal for buyers looking for a speedy move in January.”
An exciting offering for the northwest London neighbourhood, The One Hundred comprises two 7-storey buildings, tranquil outdoor meadows, a network of paths and parks, and cycle parking, as well as 12,000 sqft of light industrial spaces for creatives and makers. Next door, residents can easily access an Anytime Fitness gym, a large Co-Op supermarket, a nursery and a trendy canal barge selling coffees and crepes. A brand-new Tesco supermarket will also be opening soon on-site. A major draw for buyers, the waterside development will also offer a community rooftop garden, where residents can plant their own vegetables, herbs and flowers, or simply relax with friends and enjoy views of the iconic Grand Union Canal.
Spacious, airy apartments at The One Hundred have been thoughtfully designed for modern city living. Fully integrated Symphony kitchens come complete with a fan-assisted electric oven, induction hob and Zanussi fridge freezer, while contemporary bathrooms are fitted with a chrome bath and shower mixer and white sanitaryware. Each home offers a large private balcony or terrace, ideal for al fresco dining or Saturday morning yoga.
An ideal location, The One Hundred boasts a variety of first-class amenities on its doorstep. Nearby Alperton offers two gyms, a healthcare centre and a community hub, along with a variety of supermarkets. Wembley is less than a 10-minute drive or a 15-minute cycle away, where residents will find popular street food market BOXPARK, and the world-famous Wembley Stadium, hosting a huge range of international music artists and sports teams – from Taylor Swift and Oasis to England’s football team.
Renowned for its vibrant cultural scene, Alperton is considered as one of the key spice trails in northwest London, with a myriad of Brazilian, Turkish and Indian street food markets and restaurants all within easy reach. Running through the heart of Alperton, Ealing Road is home to a number of Halal shops, an attractive limestone Hindu temple and a renowned annual Diwali parade.
A fantastic spot for couples and families, there is a good selection of primary and secondary schools within walking distance from the development, including Alperton Community School, Lyon Park Primary School and The Stonebridge School.
For commuters, Stonebridge Park and Alperton stations are both easily accessible on foot, providing direct train and tube links to the City and West End – reaching Euston, Paddington and Oxford Circus in less than 30 minutes.
