Description
BeCa Residential Development, Southwark
BeCa (651-657 Old Kent Road, Southwark, South-East London) is a modern residential development. The building is part of the Ruby Triangle regeneration project, a major urban overhaul in the Old Kent Road Opportunity Area. Apartments available for sale as part of this scheme provide contemporary urban living in a fast-evolving Zone 2 location undergoing significant residential and commercial investment.
The apartments first opened in October 2019 and comprise approximately 262 units spread over an eighteen-storey building. Homes are one- or two-bedroom in layout with floor areas measuring approximately 50 to 72 square metres. Homes in this development currently start from around £475,000, depending on layout and configuration. The building fully embraces modern architecture, while sitting over more than 22,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space for a proper mixed-use urban setting.
Architecture and Interior Design
The BeCa has been created by globally acclaimed architects Farrells. The idea is influenced by loft-style living connected to New York residential conversions that resulted in apartments with memorable industrial design details. Inside, details include exposed concrete ceilings in living areas and contemporary finishes that evoke the character of modern urban loft apartments.
The open layouts and practical floor plans of the apartments make use of every inch to create a feeling of spaciousness. Kitchens are equipped with composite stone worktops, terrazzo-style splashbacks, and fully integrated European appliances. Bathrooms have rainfall shower fittings, wall-mounted sanitaryware, and contemporary ceramic tiling. All homes have private outdoor space in the form of a balcony or terrace, with views across South London.
Amenities and Community Environment
The residents also enjoy several facilities that add to modern living. The building offers a full-time porter service along with shared amenities like a co-working space and a games room. Large, shared roof terraces provide communal outdoor spaces where residents can lounge and enjoy panoramic views of London.
Plans for the development also incorporate commercial space at the lower levels, which a gym operator is expected to occupy as health and fitness facilities. These amenities help create a mixed-use community environment, integrating residential living with the services of daily life and leisure opportunities.
Location and Transport Connectivity
The BeCa sits in one of London’s major regeneration corridors. The Old Kent Road Opportunity Area is set to provide around 20,000 new homes and 10,000 new jobs alongside new transport infrastructure, including future Bakerloo Line stations. The scheme is part of a huge regeneration programme that aims to overhaul the district and enhance long-term investment potential.
A potential purchaser, weighing housing options in South London, for example, may consider factors such as connectivity, future growth of that neighbourhood, and the proximity of amenities when deciding to purchase. The local infrastructure is further explored by the surrounding map and the marketing materials, along with floor plans of the apartments. Other nearby rail links are Queens Road Peckham and South Bermondsey stations, which connect to wider London transport networks.

How to choose a perfect home floor plan: 3 quick tips
Choosing a floor plan might be tricky, but it shouldn't be so. See 3 quick tips below to pick only the right layout for your new home.
Tip 1 — Measure it all
You might already know your desired square footage when choosing a new home. Generally, more bedrooms mean more space, which also drives up the prices.
However, modern developers offer smart floor plans so you can make better use of the space. For instance, a studio with an open floor plan can be much more efficient and affordable than a typical 1-bedroom apartment with a traditional floor plan.
Tip 2 – Go with the flow
Once you have picked one or several layouts, you need to imagine living in the space. Visualise daily activities like laundry or cooking: is it convenient? Do you have enough space?
Online interior design apps that offer 3D visualisation (many of them are free) are time-savers here. Just download the desired floor plan from 1newhomes, upload it to the website you chose, and get a 3D render to visualise living in your new home.
Tip 3 — Do not neglect flexible space
The current lifestyle dictates its own rules. That’s why you need to consider flexible space in your perfect floor plan to have room for a home office or a gym. In addition, be sure to check that your new flat has a lot of natural light. The importance of the latter goes without saying.
A good floor plan means having all you need in a smartly designed space. We are sure our quick tips help you pick only the perfect layout for your new home.
