London comes to life during the festive period, with world-renowned shopping, Christmas markets, and beautiful lights adorning the vibrant streets of the capital. For house hunters hoping to be settled in a new home in time for the festivities, the final phase at Countryside’s East City Point development in Canning Town, offers the last chance for house-hunters to hear the sleigh bells ring in London.

East City Point comprises a contemporary collection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom townhouses. Situated in the heart of East London and just a four-minute tube journey to Canary Wharf, the homes are ideally located to enjoy all that London has to offer during the Christmas period. Designed with community at heart, the development is perfect for those searching to join an established and thriving neighbourhood.

Stacey Mitchell, Associate Sales Director at Countryside Partnerships South comments: “Many of the homes at East City Point are ready to move into before Christmas, meaning residents can be settled in time to enjoy the festive period with friends and family. Ideally located in Canning Town, all the shopping and celebrations of which London is renowned for during the Christmas season is just moments away.  With just a few homes left, we would urge those looking to spend this Christmas in a new home to get in touch as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.”

The Lexicon Terrace apartments have been designed to offer the height of modern living, with bright, contemporary interiors and open plan kitchen/living/dining areas, ideal for entertaining this festive season. Each apartment has access to some form of outdoor space, either a balcony or a private terrace, ensuring that each home is filled with natural light. Kitchens are individually designed, with sleek handleless fitted units, chrome accessories and a range of high-quality integrated appliances. Bathrooms are sleek, with contemporary white sanitary ware, chrome accessories, and driftwood detailing throughout.

Benefitting from £3.7 billion of regeneration, the area of Canning Town and Custom House is a smart choice for investment. This regeneration scheme is set to deliver new homes, higher quality streets, as well as an impressive £600 million town centre, expected to be completed in 2024. As part of the transformation, a redeveloped Rathbone Market and the new Hallsville Quarter in Canning Town will provide extensive retail and leisure facilities, with plenty of green open spaces.

For last minute shoppers, East City Point is ideally located for residents to enjoy London’s world class shopping facilities on the doorstep. Stratford City Westfield, one of the largest urban shopping centres in Europe, is only three miles away, providing over 250 stores. Meanwhile, those looking for quirky and unique gifts, will enjoy the annual East Village Christmas Makers Market, also located in nearby Stratford. Shoppers can get into the festive spirit with entertainment, music and food, whilst exploring the handmade gifts and gadgets on offer.

Residents of East City Point benefit from excellent travel connections, with Canning Town train station just a short walk away. Direct services run to Canary Wharf in just four minutes via the Jubilee Line. The DLR also stops at Canning Town station, connecting to Stratford station in 11 minutes. Arriving in 2018, Crossrail will improve transport links in London, putting nearby Custom House station just 14 minutes from the West End.
