East London’s biggest regeneration story with station on your doorstep – TwelveTrees Park

Berkeley Group’s TwelveTrees Park is a 26-acre, 22-year masterplan in West Ham, East London. Phase 1 is underway. The Redwood, the second building in Phase 1, is now at or near completion, with remaining units set to complete by Q4 2026 – Q2 2027.

For investors considering a suitable entry period, now is the ideal time as this is still early in a long-term scheme, with the surrounding infrastructure and commercial buildout still ahead. That gap between current pricing and the fully realised masterplan is where the value proposition sits.

Why Phase 1 entry matters in a scheme of this scale

Typically, regeneration schemes of this scale reprice as each phase is completed. Investors entering a Berkeley masterplan at the earlier phases have historically benefited from holding longer-term, enjoying strong capital growth and yields, as surrounding infrastructure catches up with Berkeley’s complete vision.

With a strong track record of delivering highly desirable, integrated communities, including White City Living, Royal Arsenal Riverside, and Woodberry Down, Berkeley Group delivers yet again with another landmark masterplan.

Hassle-free connectivity to the city and beyond

West Ham Station connects five lines: Jubilee, District, Hammersmith & City, DLR and c2c rail. Stratford is just one stop away, giving residents direct access to the Elizabeth Line, with services running directly to Heathrow Airport without any interchange.

From West Ham: Canary Wharf is approximately seven minutes away and the City is around fifteen; London City Airport is ten. TwelveTrees Park is situated between Canary Wharf, the City and Stratford, three of London’s primary employment and commercial centres. This development holds one of TfL’s highest Public Transport Accessibility Level ratings and more than 800,000 people work within a 15-minute commute of the site.

Phase 1 of TwelveTrees Park sits closest to West Ham Station, with a new dedicated entrance to the station expected to open in 2027.

The tenant profile at TwelveTrees Park

Two tenant profiles dominate the real estate landscape here: working professionals and students. This vibrant area’s average resident age is 32 and the employment base within commuting distance comprises finance, technology and corporate sectors concentrated in Canary Wharf and the City. Demand from this cohort is stable and consistent, not seasonal, not dependent on a single employer or institution.

For students, the transport connections matter. Three UK top-ten universities are accessible within 25 minutes: LSE, King’s College London and Imperial College London. UCL’s Stratford campus, Queen Mary University’s Mile End and Whitechapel campuses and University of the Arts London add further reach to that catchment.

What East London looks like today

TwelveTrees Park’s investment case is partly internal to the development and partly the product of what has already been built around it.

Westfield Stratford, one of Europe’s largest urban shopping centres, is a single stop away. East Bank at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, the £1.1 billion cultural development bringing the V&A, Sadler’s Wells, the BBC and University of the Arts London to the area, is progressing. The International Quarter at Stratford has drawn the Financial Conduct Authority, Transport for London and Cancer Research UK as anchor occupiers.

These are not projected amenities; they are established or committed and they form the demand infrastructure that supports rental values at a development like TwelveTrees Park.

East London has also undergone a broader residential shift. Independent restaurants, cultural venues and design-led retail have taken root across Stratford, Hackney Wick and Fish Island. This area draws a younger, professionally mobile demographic, which maps directly onto the core tenant profile at TwelveTrees Park.

Within the development

Residents can take advantage of a private residents’ club – The Cordova Club, complete with a 24-hour concierge, gym, business lounge, screening room, a pool and wellness centre scheduled for a later phase. There is a direct station entrance built into the development, an exclusive feature in London and a practical advantage tenants consistently value. Twelve acres of landscaped green space, including a Wi-Fi enabled park, is ideal for unwinding, with an on-site Sainsbury’s for daily retail.
