Such indulgence was traditionally associated with the fashionable Prime Central London areas of Mayfair, Belgravia, Kensington and Chelsea. However a selection of new-build developments in the City and Canary Wharf aimed at high-earning young professionals in the heart of the capital’s financial and business district have started to offer an enticing blend of contemporary design, high specification and extravagant lifestyle amenities. Further east, the on-going Docklands regeneration has resulted in luxury new homes, often converted warehouses with a distinctive riverside feel, conveniently positioned for an easy commute into central London. North West London can hardly be left behind with its landmark residential destination Beaufort Park recognised for its extensive on-site amenities including a comprehensive fitness suite with spa and jacuzzi and on-site shops and restaurants.
