One question we receive is: who are the top property developers in North London, and what are they building in the local area?
First up is Countryside, one of the developers behind the Millbrook Park development in Mill Hill. The company focuses on building homes of lasting quality that have a strong sense of belonging. Over 55 years in the industry, Countryside has worked on new developments in London, the South East, the North West and the West Midlands.
The next developer to look into is St George, which is working on the Beaufort Park development in Hendon. St George is part of the Berkeley Group, known for its quality homes in London and the south of England. As Housebuilder of the Year in 2015, the Berkeley Group is highly regarded and works hard to ensure the sustainability of its developments.
Barratt Homes is currently working on various new properties in Hendon and Colindale to add to its extensive portfolio of residential and mixed-use developments in London. After 30 years in the industry, Barratts has a top reputation and was awarded a five-star rating in the Home Builders Federation Customer Satisfaction survey 2017. The developer is also well-regarded for its ten-year NHBC Buildmark warranty scheme, which covers the structure of its new homes for ten years as well as fixtures and fittings for two years.
Another developer of interest is Fairview New Homes. The company has worked on various developments in Colindale, including the Pulse and Edition developments. The Pulse is one example of the company’s strong track record in transforming brownfield sites, which has seen it turn the former Colindale hospital and the former British Newspaper Library into quality new homes. These recent developments are part of a long history in London and the Home Counties, where Fairview New Homes has been building since 1961.
Our next top developer is Signia, which is currently working on Franklin Court in Borehamwood. This development is part of the company’s residential offering (Signia Living), however, it also builds commercial and retail spaces (Signia Space). Headquartered in north-west London, Signia has won awards for luxury developments across Greater London, including the Housing Excellence Awards prize for Best Regeneration Scheme in 2016.
If you are looking into buying a new home it can help to know that a top developer has built it. With decades of experience and award-winning developments under their belts, these companies are among the top property developers in North London.
