A buzzing neighbourhood with super speedy links to central London

Londoners! Fancy a home of your own in an uber cool neighbourhood that's only a 15-minute tube ride from the city centre? It may sound too good to be true but with L&Q at Brunel Street Works — a stunning new collection of spacious shared ownership apartments in Canning Town — all that could be within reach.

L&Q at Brunel Street Works is the crowning glory of a £3.7 billion regeneration programme that's bringing new shops, restaurants, public spaces and more to a historic part of the docklands that has long flown under the radar. The development itself boasts some great facilities including a roof terrace, a podium garden, and a children's play area, and each apartment is built to last. Just like the neighbourhood's namesake — Isambard Kingdom Brunel, a legendary engineer with strong links to this heritage-rich area — would have wanted. 

With L&Q at Brunel Street Works, a one-bedroom apartment could be yours from just £102,500 for a 25% share (full market value: £410,000). There are also two-beds, three-beds, and mews houses up for grabs, which come with perks like underfloor heating, private balconies, and ample desk space for all you home workers (and Canary Wharf is only a five minute commute away, if you're still office-bound). Click below to have a nose around.
