Australia-based developer Lend Lease has unveiled Trafalgar Place (pictured), a new urban residential development located in Elephant & Castle within prime central London.

As part of its global launch, an exhibition in Singapore will be held this weekend (13 to 14 April) at the Regent Hotel.  
 
The project comprises 235 homes ranging from studios to one- to three-bedroom apartments spread across seven blocks. Higher floor units offer city views while those on the lower levels look over green spaces or tree-lined streets.  
 
“Trafalgar Place will provide the first new homes to be completed as part of the £1.5 billion (S$2.8 billion) regeneration of Elephant & Castle, driven by Lend Lease in partnership with Southwark Council. The regeneration is gathering real momentum and will unlock the area’s potential with almost 3,000 new homes, as well as new parks, shops and improved transport taking shape over the next 12 to 15 years,” said Mark Dickinson, Lend Lease’s Managing Director for the Development business for EMEA.
 
“With the transformation of this well connected part of central London and Lend Lease’s commitment to building vibrant and sustainable living spaces, we are confident of the investment opportunity these residences offer.”
 
Trafalgar Place features spacious interiors, energy-efficient lighting, heating and water recovery systems, as well as improved insulation and ventilation. Other facilities include a woodland walk, garden square, al fresco café and rain pool water feature.
 
For the first release, prices will start from £310,000 (S$589,000) for one-bedroom units and £400,000 (S$761,000) for two-bedders.
