About Goodman's Fields
Development Overview
Goodman’s Fields is a substantial, completed new build homes development located in the heart of Aldgate, London E1 8PU, strategically positioned on the eastern fringe of the Square Mile. Developed by the Berkeley Group (specifically St. George), the scheme transformed a seven-acre former bank site into a high-density, mixed-use urban quarter comprising approximately 900 luxury apartments, along with commercial, retail, and community space. While the primary new build phase is sold out, properties are available on a resale basis, presenting a proven investment in a key City fringe location. Current available new build homes for sale on the resale market are predominantly high-specification apartments, including studio, one, two, and three-bedroom units, housed across various buildings like Cashmere House and Meranti House. Resale two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments are currently being listed with asking prices in the range of £890,000 to £1,000,000 (prices are subject to change and should be confirmed with a property agent).
Property Details
Units available at Goodman’s Fields typically feature high-specification finishes, with many residences offering private balconies or 'winter gardens.' The apartments are arranged around two acres of professionally landscaped green space, including the tranquil Four Seasons Garden and Chaucer Gardens. On-site resident amenities are comprehensive, focusing on convenience and wellbeing. These facilities include a 24-hour concierge service, a private residents' gymnasium, a swimming pool, a spa, and a private screening room. The design features slender high-rise towers, some reaching 24 storeys, by award-winning architects Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands, and internal finishes by Scott Brownrigg.

Goodman’s Fields offers exceptional connectivity due to its proximity to multiple transport hubs. Aldgate East Underground Station (District and Hammersmith & City lines) is a 2-4 minute walk away, while Aldgate Underground Station (Circle and Metropolitan lines) is a 5-7 minute walk.

Tenure is typically Leasehold with a remaining term of around 986 years. For current availability, specific floorplans, and detailed viewing arrangements, prospective buyers should contact a specialised local property agent as the developer, Berkeley Group, has confirmed the original sales phase is all sold out.
