Notting Hill launches affordable homes in NW9

Launching in North West London this month, new development Pulse brings affordable living to Colindale with a selection of contemporary two- and three-bedroom apartments.

Located on the former site of Colindale Hospital, the new homes are aimed at young professionals and commuters, with good transport links to central London available from nearby Colindale Station.

Notting Hill Home Ownership has launched a number of Shared Ownership apartments for first-time buyers looking to get on the housing ladder.

Affordable homes at Pulse start at £94,400 for a 40% share of a two bedroom apartment. Three bedroom homes start from £129,000 for a 40% share.

Anyone living or working in London is eligible to apply for a home at Pulse, with priority going to Barnet residents.

The mixed tenure development will include a number of facilities such as retail units, a primary care trust and a children's play area.

The new homes are supplied by a local energy centre, delivering significant carbon emissions benefits and helping to reduce residents' energy costs.

As well as having parking facilities, Pulse is well placed for access to public transport. The new homes are adjacent to Colindale underground station, which is served by the Northern line, and several bus routes run nearby. One route passes directly by the development, providing easy access between Edgware and Wembley. Local amenities are within half a mile, including newsagents, grocers, cafes and pubs.

"Pulse is set in an ideal location for commuters who are looking for great access into central London," says Mark Vaughn, managing director of Notting Hill Home Ownership. "Our Shared Ownership scheme makes it affordable for first time buyers who may otherwise struggle to buy a property in such an expensive area. The added bonus of dedicated parking makes Pulse a fantastic all-round option for young professionals."
