With all it has to offer, it would be fair to say that Deptford is an ideal location for young couples and creative types as well as city professionals being so close to Canary Wharf & the city.
Since we have been creating the new homes at our Deptford Foundry development, we have certainly seen the area continuing to evolve and thrive with its eclectic mix of boutique businesses, eateries and art venues. We love that this SE neighbourhood is just a stone’s throw away from central London, so if you’re looking for a good place to invest then Deptford should definitely be on your radar to explore…
Eateries galore
Deptford Market Yard has been a contributing factor to the uplift of visitors to the area, offering a range of coffee shops, bars, and cafes.
The area also boasts a huge array of eateries offering everything from Caribbean to Spanish and Italian to Indian, residents and visitors can literally taste the foods of the world thanks to Marcella, Isla Ray and Festa sul Prato.
With The Dog & Bell, Royal Albert and Marquis of Granby being renowned as good, old traditional pubs to Deptford and New Cross, the area has something for everyone to enjoy.
A variety of unique and charming eateries really draw attention and interest to an area and with Deptford boasting such a vast range, more and more people are expected to flock to this district.
Creative vibes
Deptford, being such a creative hub, always has something going on across its many artistic and cultural venues including at Deptford Does Art, The Albany and noformat gallery (next door to our Deptford Foundry development).
The annual Deptford X contemporary arts festival has also helped put the area on the cultural map and residents can look forward to this event again this Autumn from 25th October to 3rd November.
It is often claimed that when the art scene starts moving in, it’s usually a sign that the property market is about to see a spurt of growth so watch this space for Deptford!
Commuter haven
Commuters and those who love to take advantage of all that London has to offer, could not ask for a better location. The train journey to London Bridge is a speedy six minutes which provides direct links to Waterloo and St Pancras, whilst residents can reach Canary Wharf in less than 15 minutes via the DLR.
If anything, Deptford has the strongest chance of growing further in popularity as a place to live and invest due to its fantastic transport links.
Make your move
With an increase of new build homes and further regeneration of the area, Deptford is truly a thriving place to consider as a place to invest.
From a development perspective, Deptford is often compared with Shoreditch due to the area expecting to rapidly grow in the next few years to meet that of its northern counterpart. In Shoreditch from 1995 to 2016, the average priced home increased by a staggering 896% so if the property market in Deptford is to follow suit then buyers investing in the area now are likely to reap the benefits.
