World class entertainment on the doorstep in Stratford

Published On : 03/14/2019

London’s centre of gravity has been shifting eastwards over the past decade or two as investment and regeneration has been funneled into the city’s eastern boroughs. Nowhere more so than Stratford, which has experienced a catalyzed rate of change as a result of the 2012 Olympics. As well as more opportunities for jobs and businesses, Stratford now offers world-class entertainment venues, leisure facilities and shopping to rival the West End. For those that love living close to the action, the collection of stylish Shared Ownership apartments available at New Garden Quarter from Notting Hill Genesis puts the best of London on the doorstep.

The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Westfield Stratford City are huge draws for the area and firmly marks Stratford as a go to destination in London. New Garden Quarter is situated just a few moments’ walk from both of these venues, as well as the two stations Stratford and Stratford International, so living here could not be more convenient. What is more, buying through Notting Hill Genesis’ Shared Ownership scheme makes getting on the property ladder in this sought after neighbourhood more manageable for many first time buyers.

As part of the legacy of London 2012, the Olympic park lives on in a place for locals and visitors to enjoy, with 110 acres of green open spaces, various sporting venues including the aquatics centre, the London Stadium, velodrome and Copper Box Arena all linked with an exciting calendar of events. In the coming years it will also become home to a brand new cultural destination known as East Bank that will include sites for Sadler’s Wells, BBC Music and the V&A, as well as the London College of Fashion. Culture fans are well catered for in the local area with award winning venue Theatre Royal Stratford East, the landmark Stratford Picturehouse cinema and Stratford Circus Arts Centre.

Westfield Stratford City is one of Europe’s largest shopping centres offering a huge choice of shops from high street to designer, as well as restaurants, bars, bowling alley, cinema and casino.
