Delivering new homes with swift access into the city centre and beyond, L&Q has recently launched a collection of one- and two-bedroom apartments for sale at Excalibur in Catford, South East London. Continuing to offer high quality homes, L&Q has also launched a mix of Shared Ownership homes at the development, with deposits from just £7,725 for a one-bedroom apartment.

Ensuring that residents at Excalibur can make the most of the multiple transport links nearby, L&Q is offering buyers a one-year travelcard with their purchase as well as three-months of mortgage payments on homes for sale at the development. Available for customers to use on travel across the capital from Zones 1 to 3, the travelcard enables ease and affordability when commuting for both business and leisure. Alongside this, L&Q is offering up to £1,000 towards moving costs on Shared Ownership homes.*

Excalibur has a variety of connections nearby. Homes are within walking distance of a number of local bus routes, including the 124 which will get residents to nearby Catford Bridge and Catford National Rail stations in 14 and 16 minutes. These stations offer speedy services direct to Central London, allowing commuters to reach London Bridge in just 12 minutes, and London Blackfriars in 23 minutes.

The development is also located within a 6-minute cycle to both Hither Green and Bellingham Station, where Southeastern and Thameslink trains operate respectively. The Superloop SL4 Grove Park to Canary Wharf bus line also operates nearby, with Grove Park reachable by bike in just 8 minutes.

Claire Brenlund, Sales and Marketing Director at L&Q comments: “We’re really pleased to be offering a one-year travelcard to customers at Excalibur. The variety of transport options on offer to residents at the development mean that individual buyers have access to whichever location they need to reach, whether it’s by bus, bike or train. We’re proud to be delivering high quality, contemporary homes within a well-connected neighbourhood.”

These new homes form part of a long-term regeneration project of the Excalibur Estate, in partnership with Lewisham Council. This will see a neighbourhood of prefabricated bungalows transformed into approximately 390 new homes available for sale, through Shared Ownership and affordable rent. Originally constructed in 1946 to meet housing need during the post-war housing crisis, the original estate comprised a collection of prefabricated bungalows which were designed with a projected lifespan of just 10 years.

With a masterplan design by regeneration specialists Hunters Architects, contemporary exteriors feature clean lines and smart brickwork, all set around communal landscaped grounds.

Inside homes at Excalibur, all properties are finished to a modern specification. Kitchens feature sleek integrated appliances, including oven, ceramic hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Bathrooms include modern white sanitaryware as well as functional chrome towel radiators, whilst all bedrooms are fitted with carpets, and principal bedrooms feature built-in mirrored wardrobes. Boasting green credentials, homes at Excalibur feature heating sourced by an onsite District heating system, low energy LED downlights and dual flush plates in all bathrooms for water efficiency. Each stylish apartment also benefits from a private balcony or terrace and parking is available on all private sale homes.

An increasingly vibrant area, Catford town centre is currently undergoing a multi-million-pound regeneration programme, which includes the redevelopment of Catford Shopping Centre to create retail and community space for all. For arts lovers, Catford boasts the active Broadway Theatre and the historic Rivoli Ballroom, London’s last remaining example of an existing 1950s ballroom. For foodies, Catford is home to a range of independent eateries, as well as pubs and bars for lively nights out. Mountsfield Park and Ladywell Fields are also close by to homes at Excalibur, offering all-important access to green space in the capital. A number of homes at Excalibur also benefit from desirable views of iconic London landmarks, including Canary Wharf, The Shard and The O2.

Prices at Excalibur currently start from £320,000 for a one-bedroom apartment through Private Sale. Shared Ownership prices start from £72,250 for a 25% for a one-bedroom apartment (FMV: £309,000).
