Fairbank Estate

Urban Regeneration and Architectural Strategy

Fairbank Estate is a full-on housing project on East Road in Hoxton, part of Hackney Council’s plan to get more homes built. The project aims to fix up a spot in the city that was a bit of a mess, turning it into a nice place to live. The buildings are six stories tall, made of red brick, with bronze touches. They fit in with the look of the area but also have their own modern feel that will last.

The plan changes the way the buildings from the 1960s are laid out, making it easier to walk around and get to the new public areas. There are gardens for everyone, shops on the ground floor, and a public square in the middle, all of which will give people a place to meet and make the area feel alive. This well-thought-out property provides a modern place to live that is not too crowded, good for the environment, and will be a good place to live for a long time. It is an important addition to the housing situation in North London.

Residential Configuration, Sustainability, and Living Standards

There are 73 apartments, all set up to let in lots of light and air. The rooms are designed to be used in different ways and to be quiet and cozy. The apartments can work for all kinds of people. Systems that make the buildings energy-efficient, like special ventilation and designs that use the sun, help save energy, cut costs, and keep the air inside clean.

These homes are great for people who want to live in them and for people who want to buy them as an investment, especially since they are in Zone 1, which is getting a lot of improvements. Everyone who buys here gets a well-built home that looks good and is part of a community. The prices are set to be fair, so it is a safe bet for the future. Some apartments are now for sale, giving people a chance to get into the central London property market, where there is a lot of interest but not many homes available.

Location, Connectivity, and Community Integration

Fairbank Estate is in a great spot in Hoxton, close to Old Street, Hoxton, and Shoreditch High Street stations. This makes it easy to get to the City, Canary Wharf, and other places in London, which is great for people who commute or want to rent out their apartments. A map shows how close it is to transportation, schools, hospitals, and stores, so people know where everything is. Photos show what the buildings look like, how the gardens are set up, and the improvements to the public areas, so buyers know what they are getting.

The area is full of life, with cool cafes, creative businesses, and parks like Haggerston Park and Shoreditch Park. The property has gardens, squares, spaces for performances, playgrounds, and even places to grow food, which helps build a sense of community. All of this makes Fairbank Estate a great place to live in London.
