Kingsgate Park

Development Overview

Kingsgate Park is a major new build community by Bellway Homes, located off Billet Road in Romford, Essex (RM6 5SX), within the London Borough of Redbridge. The masterplan for this site, which transforms a former unlicensed tip, anticipates the delivery of approximately 1,300 contemporary new homes and apartments. The initial phase of the development comprises a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments, alongside 3 and 4-bedroom houses, designed to cater to a diverse range of buyers, from first-time homeowners to families and commuters. The wider scheme includes three hectares of parkland, public open space, new retail space, and a community hub, fundamentally establishing a new neighbourhood. The Redbridge Council has endorsed the masterplan and approved detailed proposals for the first phases. The homes are designed with energy efficiency in mind, utilising all-electric heating systems, including individual air source heat pumps for houses and heat pump cylinders for apartments.

Property Details

The current release will feature a selection of new build homes, including eight four and five-storey apartment buildings and 20 cottage-style houses in the first phase (Site A). Apartment units range from 1 to 3 bedrooms, and houses offer 3 or 4 bedrooms, ensuring a variety of options for different household sizes. A key feature is the provision of private outdoor space for every home: apartments include private balconies, while houses benefit from terraces or gardens. Parking facilities are available to selected properties, with the added benefit of electric vehicle (EV) charging points to support sustainable living.
