Filmworks in West London open for Malaysian buyers

Knight Frank Malaysia and Berkeley Group St George are introducing Filmworks, a mixed-use development in London to locals here and the prices for the apartments start from £694,950.

Filmworks is a new residential and leisure-led destination in the heart of Ealing town centre.

There are over 200 contemporary one-bedroom Manhattan, as well as one, two and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses, each containing custom-design fitted kitchens, elegant bathrooms, and open plan living areas.

Filmworks will offer a selection of new homes specifically designed for first-time buyers who live or work in the London Borough of Ealing.

In addition to the new homes, St George will create an eight-screen, over 1,000 seat Picturehouse cinema and a central open piazza surrounded by a high-quality mix of shops, restaurants, and bars.

The architectural and interior design by St George and award-winning TP Bennett will take inspiration from the colourful history of the nearby Ealing Studios – the first purpose-built film studios in the UK – and the art deco splendour of the retained cinema façade.

Stephen Kirwan, operations director, St George West London, said Filmworks will deliver a range of high-quality new homes whilst also creating a vibrant leisure-led destination in one of London's most desirable locations.

"With our track record of transforming historic sites into thriving mixed-use neighbourhoods, we believe that Filmworks will be a fantastic development providing much needed new homes, retail and leisure for Ealing, which is set to hugely benefit from the investment and arrival of the Elizabeth line (Crossrail) next year," he said.

St George acquired the Filmworks site in August 2016. The site forms an important part of the regeneration of Ealing ahead of the arrival of the Elizabeth Line (Crossrail) in 2021. Knight Frank Malaysia associate director, international residential project marketing, Dominic Heaton-Watson said Filmworks Ealing has all the attributes the firm looks for in a successful investment including community transformation, value-driven pricing, high-quality specifications, abundant amenities, easy transport connectivity to business districts and education.

"Having access to lovely parks and green open spaces has been a topical issue during Covid-19 and residents will enjoy a rural oasis on their doorstep in which to exercise and unwind," he said.
