Stylish new homes in NW5 — own in a vibrant, connected community with parks, schools, and transport just minutes away.
Housing in West Kentish Town Estate, Camden NW5 is currently in the process of undergoing a major re-construction started by Camden Council. The estate's existing 1960s design is to be replaced with a more modern and sustainable residential environment. Located at Weedington Road, London NW5, around 880 new homes will be created on the site, to replace the 316 outdated ones. The new scheme will offer a range of tenures including council housing, Camden Living Rent facilities, and units for private ownership.
The new layout of the estate puts safety first. It stresses the need for permeability and the importance of green spaces within its precincts- all tailored to fit in with Kentish Town's neighborhood character. With plans developed in response to consultation with residents, such a demand for good-quality accommodation is now being met in Central London.
Redevelopment is embodied in energy-efficient living spaces, communal facilities, and public relaxation spots. Building heights will be mid-rise, to integrate with the surroundings – yet new houses will offer space standards that meet or exceed those required by London authorities.
The estate’s master plan includes tree-lined streets, active ground floor uses, and mews-style housing that creates a sense of natural surveillance and walkability. The project is not yet selling units on the market but is just one part of a range of regeneration-driven initiatives by Camden Council that will release housing phases over forthcoming years. A staged construction approach has been adopted for the scheme to minimize the number of residents who need to be rehoused and keep social community networks humming.
The range of dwellings will include one-, two-, three- or four-bedroom flats. With this wide variety catering for diverse household types, Residential blocks will be flanked by shared courtyards. and public facilities. The plan, aligned with local requirements as well as what residents have asked for in design feedback over the years, contributes significantly to Camden targets on housing delivery. Each block is designed for maximum daylight exposure and ventilation, while energy performance is boosted by the inclusion of low-carbon technologies from day 1.
The location is well connected By transport means. The property is reachable on foot from Kentish Town West and Gospel Oak stations, providing access to the Overground and Thameslink. Buses along Queen's Crescent and Grafton Road will provide transport links to Camden Town, Euston, and other destinations.
