Watford Cross

Watford Cross in Watford WD24

Watford Cross is a residential project by Weston Homes on the site of Blocks D, E & F, St Albans Road, Watford WD24 5BB. The nine-storey tower includes 115 modern apartments with open-plan layouts and private balconies. Watford Cross is now sold out with all new homes in the development reserved, but resales may be available on the secondary market.

Watford Cross was designed as a central array of apartments with one, two, and three bedrooms, close to Watford Junction station. The project was of a sufficient scale, and with its urban location ––  in an established town centre environment –– absorption was strong, and it has completed a full sell-out.

Design and Interior Specification

Watford Cross offers contemporary apartments with bright, open-plan living spaces. Kitchen - Stainless steel electric fan ovens, ceramic hobs & chimney extractors all with glass splash backs. Integrated fridge/freezers, washer/dryers, and dishwashers. As well as being an area of impressive design detail, your kitchen is also supremely functional with quartzite stone worktops and designer Oakwood units complemented by LED under-cabinet lighting.

Smart Tap technology, ‘Smart Mirrors’ with LED lighting and de-mist feature, RAK Ceramics sanitaryware, and heated chrome towel rails are all featured in the bathrooms/en-suites. General specification comprises a choice of wood flooring, fitted wardrobes to principal bedrooms, USB points in the power sockets, gas-fired heating via radiators, and an audio/visual entry system, as well as sprinkler systems. Both homes blend smart technology and modern touches.

Location and Connectivity

Watford Cross is located a five-minute walk from Watford Junction station, with direct rail services to London in 16 minutes. Watford North station and local bus services are also within close reach. A comprehensive map of surrounding amenities also shows easy access to schools, cafes, parks, and shops.

Regeneration The town centre has been the subject of numerous regeneration projects, including improvements to the High Street and the completion of intu Watford, a £180 million shopping centre. There are a large number of shops and leisure facilities such as department stores, restaurants, a theater, and entertainment. Watford Palace Theatre and Watford Colosseum offer cultural events to ensure the area's appeal does not merely lie in its commuter links.

Market Context and Ownership Considerations

Watford Cross was sold as a chance to own a city-centre apartment with everything included – all appliances and all flooring. The price point made it competitive in terms of availability with London connectivity, while remaining affordable compared with Zone 1. The fully developed nature of the project facilitated an actual occupation without construction risk.

Watford Cross is sold out, and the building remains pertinent for any buyers in search of a resale purchase within a contemporary scheme. Any purchaser looking at this property can access the combination of transport and sled quality, from what is fundamentally a well-proven town centre regeneration. Floor plans and every photo allow potential buyers to do their due diligence before committing.
