Alexandra Gate, Haringey, N8

Being near to good transport links and with close proximity to high-end locations such as nearby Hornsey and Highgate village, makes any new property development an exciting prospect. Alexandra Gate is a fine example of how the wider N8 postcode is becoming an attractive option for buyers and investors with many locals buying putting down roots here. Built by Berkeley St William, these luxurious one, two- and three-bedroom apartments are within easy reach of the leafy hilltop expanse of Alexandra Palace, while being only six stops by Overground from the tech hub of Kings Cross.

Overlooking private courtyards and lush parkland, the apartments are designed to exacting specifications, providing a pleasing blend of contemporary comfort and urban style. With a selection of on-site amenities that include a 24-hour concierge, gym, lounge, pool, spa and sauna, Alexandra Gate is much more than a mere residential block. The first phase of the development forms the centrepiece of a new community connecting the neighbourhood to the shopping and recreation hub of Wood Green.

The Thameslink Overground route from Hornsey Station provides direct access to Kings Cross (Eurostar) and London Bridge (The City). The Piccadilly Line runs Tube trains from Wood Green into the heart of the West End and on to Knightsbridge as well as all five terminals of Heathrow Airport.
