Cavalry Barracks

Redevelopment Site at Cavalry Barracks, Hounslow

Cavalry Barracks is an ambitious new residential neighbourhood in the heart of West London’s up-and-coming regeneration area near Zone 5. Inland Homes has designed a structured urban neighbourhood anchored by the heritage of a former military site and characterised by clusters of new homes between 3 and 9 storeys, ranging from one-bedroom apartments to family-sized homes in this exciting development. All primary offerings have sold out, with re-sales available for those buyers who want to buy into an established community.

The development is a mixed-use scheme which includes homes, gardens, and social spaces. The idea has been to create a sustainable and biodiverse public realm whilst preserving the historic character of the site. The character of the masterplan sets it apart from narrow residential lots, providing a grander and more expansive living environment complete with shared space, cafes, and open space.

Specificity, Community, and Environment

Cavalry Barracks is made of a selection of apartment types to cater to a diverse demographic. The proposal has features such as balconies to individual homes, park-space landscaping, riverside walks, and special chill-out areas that facilitate outdoor living. The redevelopment style facilitates organized public and semi-private spaces, as well as socialization, while keeping private dwellings within each building cluster.

The area is classified as having a high level of home resales, and the AutoScore ranking system scores it based on surrounding infrastructure such as schools, transportation, parks, and airports. Heathrow Airport is roughly 4.4 miles away, while you can easily reach Hounslow West Underground Station on foot. Local schools, bus routes, and amenities add to the convenience of everyday living. The local area map facilitates close-up examination of connectivity and infrastructure to assist a buyer in their decision-making before progressing with deeper investigation.

Accessibility, Capitalization Ratios, and Market Power

Transport connections offer access to central London via Underground and overground rail services and a number of local bus routes. The capital’s enduring appeal, West London is one of the oldest residential areas in England, a mature location with a long history which continues to benefit from demand for housing. The site is strategically positioned to provide equal access to areas of employment, green space, and international transport links.

Significantly, indicative market data for residential schemes in London offer the potential of an annual rental income ranging between 2.5% and 4.5%, with estimated capital growth of 5-10% sqm. Numerical examples show how a £500,000 investment in capital can add value over five years. This is a tool that helps a buyer to review its long-term prospects when deciding whether to buy into a completed project of this size. While there are no longer any new units available for purchase from the initial phase of development, resale opportunities may be different than those presented by directly selling prices due to market conditions and inventory availability.
