Fortunately, the Filmworks Ealing project, scheduled for completions in the first half of next year, proves an easy mark for London properties. It represents a great option for those looking to enjoy the perennial capital appreciation in this city, and also for the ones looking to live in a bona fide world capital.
An impressive roster of global names having made Ealing home – in addition to 15,620 small and medium businesses. Filmworks’ anticipated Bogart, Olivier, Hawkins and Chapman House (from ₤694,950*) have an initial total of 209 contemporary apartments – ranging from a one-bed at 695 square feet, up to a three-bed configuration of 1,644 square feet. In line with the project’s restored star piece, the interior design & finishes hark back to the glamour of the Art Deco style.
A five-minute walk from Filmworks leads you to the University of West London which has been awarded the title of the United Kingdom’s modern university on two occasions. Nearby, you also find the mixed St Benedict’s School and Durston House prep school for boys as well as the world-famous, prestigious Harrow School – perhaps also notable as the arena in which Jho Low had forged his contacts among the moneyed elite. In this neighbourhood, 100 percent of Ealing’s Secondary schools are considered either good or outstanding by the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills (OFSTED).
Then, there is of course the many thrilling entertainment, retail and F&B attractions with approximately 70,000 square feet of shops, restaurants and bars, amid 27,000 square feet of public open space. In essence, it makes it possible for residents at Filmworks to conduct date nights every night, with a short stroll to the movies, followed by a nightcap at one of the many bars or wine lounges.
Filmworks also becomes a natural extension to the newly established Dickens Yard across the road, which boasts fashion brands such as Jigsaw, the neighbourhood bar and restaurant of Darwin & Wallace as well as Gail’s Bakery and Balans Soho Society. Triyoga and Gymbox provide the requisite motivation to adopt a fitness routine, as do the many parks and green spaces which make Ealing one of London’s greenest boroughs.
Following a £14 million refurbishment, the nearby Ealing Broadway shopping centre reopens with a mix of newcomers alongside national retailer Marks & Spencer. In the same vicinity, you also find The Green, a constellation of food and beverage offerings, from Italian-styled cafes to handmade gift shops. All this lends a charming personality to Ealing’s W5 west London postcode.
“Through this mix of new homes, alongside the leisure district and the proximity to established parks, Filmworks draws its inspiration from the past and celebrates a future which embraces a healthy blend of city and suburban lifestyles.”
