David Campbell, Group Sales and Marketing Director at Telford Homes, comments:

“We are delighted to announce the launch of the Parkside Quarter show home which has been beautifully designed by Hatch Interiors, who are well known for their quality and stylish interior design. The Isle of Dogs is unique among London districts as it is surrounded by the Thames and expanses of parkland, as well as minutes away from key business, retail and leisure opportunities. The high standing of surrounding areas such as Canary Wharf has had a positive impact on the Isle of Dogs regeneration, an area that is currently experiencing a considerable transformation, which in turn gives buyers at Parkside Quarter a great investment, whether they are buying to live in themselves, or to rent out.”

Built with the environment in mind, the development features green roofs to encourage local wildlife and photovoltaic panels which will help reduce monthly energy bills.
