Eastside Quarter

Eastside Quarter: Bexleyheath Town Centre Apartments

Development Overview

Eastside Quarter is a new build apartment development by FTSE 250 developer Bellway Homes, strategically located on Broadway in the heart of Bexleyheath town centre, Bexley DA6 7LB. The development, built on the former Bexley Council civic offices site, offers a collection of studio, one, two, and three-bedroom apartments across blocks such as Aberleigh Court and Liberty Court. The final phase of the development is now largely complete and ready for occupation, with some blocks like Ernest Court and Craft Court already occupied. The construction is generally complete, with a reported completion status of 2023. Bellway Homes holds a 5-star builder status from the Home Builders Federation for multiple consecutive years, though buyers are advised to conduct their own due diligence, as the developer has faced isolated resident-reported quality concerns and was part of a February 2024 investigation by the CMA into potential breaches of competition law.

Property Details

The remaining availability is highly limited. One-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments are currently reported as sold out. The final available homes are specific two-bedroom apartments, with remaining properties priced in the range of £362,000 to £435,000. All apartments include a private balcony or terrace. Residents benefit from a high-speed Hyperoptic connection, offering top average speeds of 900Mbps. Exclusive on-site facilities include a private residents' gym and a concierge service. The development also incorporates communal landscaped podium and roof gardens for shared outdoor space. Limited parking is available, including spaces with electric charging points, along with secure ground-floor bicycle storage.

Location Benefits

The town-centre location provides immediate access to amenities. The Broadway shopping centre, which includes a multiplex Cineworld, is a short walk away, alongside a variety of chain and independent retailers, bars, and restaurants. For daily needs, cafes like Costa Coffee and Caffè Nero are within a 9 to 10-minute walk.

Transport links place the development in London Zone 5. Bexleyheath train station is approximately a 20-minute walk (1.3 miles), offering direct rail links with a journey time of around 40 minutes to London Bridge Station.

Local bus services are easily accessible, with the Mayplace Road West / Bexleyheath Clock Tower (Stop S) being just an 8-minute walk away. For leisure, Russell Park (0.5 miles) and the 180-acre Danson Park (under two miles) provide extensive green space, sports pitches, and courts. Nearby schooling options include the well-regarded Pelham Primary School (0.6 miles) and St Catherine's Catholic School, as well as selective grammar schools such as Townley Grammar and Beths Grammar.
