London Square Woolwich – Where scenic river views meet excellent connectivity

A centuries-old neglected military garrison, Woolwich is scripting an investment-driven growth story today by transforming into a regeneration hotspot. Located along the southeast banks of the River Thames, the SE18 postcode is all set to welcome a brand-new residential scheme.

As we gear up for the exclusive first phase launch of London Square Woolwich in Singapore this weekend, let’s look at some of the most exciting features that make this development an exceptional London property investment.

Revival of a residential riverside neighbourhood

While Woolwich’s past as a military base to stockpile ammunition is well known throughout history, the area today is a regeneration success story, as many overseas investors have started taking note of it for its lifestyle offerings. From contemporary riverside living to quick central London connectivity supported by multiple rail lines, including the DLR, Overground and the latest Elizabeth Line, the residential appeal of London Square Woolwich is truly unmatched.

Elegant modern apartments and world-class amenities

Starting at an attractive price point of £408,000*, this development will feature elegant one and two-bed apartments with a private balcony and access to a landscaped rooftop terrace offering panoramic river views. Residents will also benefit from several upscale on-site amenities, including a dedicated concierge desk and co-working lounge.

Local investments boosting lifestyle

The upcoming leisure centre in Woolwich, regarded to be one of the UK’s largest, with multiple swimming pools and water slides, is just a minute away from the development. Additionally, the local council has invested £25 million to enhance the town square and upgrade public infrastructure for residents.

Woolwich Works, which opened in 2021, is a popular new cultural hub developed across several historic Royal Arsenal buildings in the area. Costing over £45 million, the centre is an expansive arts and entertainment venue comprising a 1200-seat auditorium and a 450-seat theatre.

Quick connectivity at the doorstep

Despite being in Zone 4, connectivity to the City and central London is seamless from London Square Woolwich. While Woolwich Arsenal National Rail and DLR stations are just a two-minute walk away, Woolwich Elizabeth Line Station is also very close. For frequent travellers, London City Airport is just five minutes away via the DLR.

A hotspot for working professionals and students, Canary Wharf is just eight minutes away, while Liverpool Street is less than 15 minutes away from Woolwich. Students also benefit greatly as five of London’s top ten universities, including UCL and King’s College London, can be reached in half an hour. Residents can also access the Woolwich Royal Arsenal Pier for scenic river journeys.

Fast-growing rents and capital growth

According to Dataloft’s Rental Market Analysis, rental growth in South East London, especially Woolwich, has exceeded growth in other parts of London by 41% over the last five years. While rental growth has been staggering in Woolwich, average apartment values have also increased by 49% across the last decade, outperforming the nearby and wider Boroughs.

An exceptional investment opportunity

As part of a wider regeneration plan to add over 3,000 homes, London Square Woolwich offers investors an exciting opportunity to invest early and benefit from strong rental demand and growing property prices. According to the Greater London Authority’s recent projections, Greenwich’s population is estimated to grow at a rate that is nearly double the London average over the next 20 years, making it a desirable riverside investment destination.
