This spring, renowned boutique developer Great Marlborough Estates will open the doors to its first show apartment at Chiswick Green. With interiors by leading design studio, Accouter, the new two-bedroom apartment offers an early opportunity to experience west London’s latest luxury residential address.
With a prime location in the heart of Chiswick, tucked away behind Chiswick High Road and overlooking Turnham Green, Chiswick Green represents a rare opportunity to live in one of capital’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. Comprising a mix of 137 apartments, penthouses and townhouses, alongside thoughtfully designed landscaping, Chiswick Green brings together a charming village-like location and abundance of greenery, with the cosmopolitan lifestyle of the city within quick and easy reach.
The unveiling of the show apartment comes as Chiswick continues to see strong demand from buyers looking for a greener yet well-connected location, with recent analysis of Land Registry data by Bloomberg revealing Chiswick was the only area of London to see house price rises of more than a quarter in the year (2022) through to September.
Homes inspired by the site’s unique history
The apartment has been designed to encapsulate Chiswick’s colourful history and rich culture. Formerly home to Empire House, the site housed a performing arts theatre and music hall in the early 20th century, which has inspired Accouter’s design. Chic, luxurious design, fit for modern day living, is elevated with playful and dramatic touches that nod to the site’s artistic past.
Inspired by the scheme’s natural, leafy surroundings – including the beautiful views over Turnham Green – Accouter has chosen a neutral colour palette throughout the apartment, bringing the outside in, with the principal bedroom boasting a beautiful green winged headboard, whilst a dining area incorporates rattan wishbone chairs and olive trees.
Grant Lipton, director at Great Marlborough Estates, said: “Opening the doors to Chiswick Green for the first time marks an exciting milestone for the project. Our new apartment really does capture the essence of this village-like neighbourhood and offers a great insight into what life at Chiswick Green will be like. Complemented by thoughtful architecture by award-winning Assael, Chiswick Green really is west London’s most stylish new address.”
Sophie Rastrick, interior designer at Accouter, added: “Chiswick Green’s great location and leafy outlook provided a rich source of inspiration for the design of the show apartment. As what makes the project so special, we wanted to bring these elements to life, yet also give each apartment its own distinct personality. We’re delighted to be working with Great Marlborough Estates to create spaces that live up to their beautiful surroundings.”
Thoughtful architecture with a plethora of greenspace
Drawing inspiration from the red-brick buildings and greenery of Chiswick High Road, Chiswick Green is designed to blend seamlessly within the existing townscape, yet with its own contemporary architectural twist.
Spread across three striking buildings, Chiswick Green comprises a range of thoughtfully designed one, two and three-bedroom apartments and six spectacular penthouses, the majority of which benefit from private balconies with either river, park or city views. In addition, a collection of four distinctive three-storey townhouses sit nestled behind the high street.
Furthermore, the scheme also offers residents access to generous communal terraces – providing the ideal space for entertaining in the warmer months.
West London’s most desirable neighbourhood
Chiswick is widely considered one of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods, thanks to its wealth of local amenities, excellent education options, fantastic transport links and abundance of outdoor space. With a thriving high street along Chiswick High Road, the area is home to number of must-visit spots, from the Michelin-starred La Trompette through to exclusive members’ club High Road House, part of the Soho House Group.
The area is also particularly desirable for families thanks to its near-unrivalled educational facilities, with a range of both highly regarded state schools and independent schools within close proximity, including St Mary’s RC school, Chiswick School and Heathfield House School.
Bordering the River Thames, Chiswick offers beautiful green surroundings, including some of the capital’s most prestigious parks – including Chiswick House and Gardens, Kew Gardens and Richmond Park, the largest of London’s Royal Parks.
Despite its village-like feel, central London is within quick and easy reach. From Chiswick Park station, Victoria is a 24 minute journey and Bond Street 40 minutes, whilst Crossrail services from nearby Ealing Broadway take 26 minutes to Farringdon and 15 minutes to Heathrow Airport.
Prices at Chiswick Green start from £585,000 for a one-bedroom apartment with sales via Knight Frank and JLL. For more information, visit chiswickgreen.co.uk or call 020 8017 1947.
