Six out of 10 homes released at Angel Village – a £100m office-to-residential scheme in Islington – have sold within a month of launch with buyers dominated by domestic owner-occupiers and UK-based international students.
The 130-home development on City Road is being delivered by Bentry Capital and marketed by CBRE and Savills. A limited number of Phase 1 apartments were released in January ahead of a full sales launch this spring. Prices start from £575,000.
The scheme, Bentry’s flagship London project within its £500m portfolio, will provide one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments behind a gated entrance, with secure underground parking, concierge and private gardens. Phase 1 comprises 88 homes, with first completions expected in Q1 2027.
Bentry says all of the first wave of buyers are owner-occupiers, including British-based international students attending nearby universities. The development sits within walking distance of Angel station and close to several central London institutions.
FINAL HOMES UNDER OFFER
James Oldershaw (main picture, inset), Sales Manager (Angel Village) at Bentry Capital, says: “The first release of homes has been well received with 60% of the homes sold in the past month, all to domestic buyers or British-based students who are studying nearby.
“The buyers have been impressed with the gated development, secure underground parking and concierge at such an affordable price point.
“The final homes in this first release are under offer. We look forward to unveiling our show apartment and bringing the development to life for our prospective buyers.”
RIGHT PRODUCT, RIGHT PRICE, RIGHT BUYERS
David Ronson, National Director of Sales & Marketing at Bentry Capital, adds: “London’s property market has the misconception that off-plan sales to domestic buyers are impossible, but the right product at the right price point will always attract buyers.
“We’ve had a healthy mix of one, two and three-bedroom homes secured in the first month ahead of the full sales launch to come. Angel Village is in a fantastic, central location, with the best of the capital on your doorstep to explore and enjoy. These are the best value apartments in Zone 1, the most exciting opportunity for Londoners looking to secure their new home.”
