Where to buy in the capital 2019:the top seven regeneration hotspots for London home buyers to watch

From new housing and upgraded high streets, to improved transport links, here are the key London areas to benefit from regeneration.

While nothing is certain in the world of London property, house hunters in 2019 are hoping their biggest investment will continue to hold its value through the Brexit years and beyond.

London house hunters in 2019 who are increasingly choosy about where they want to live could do worse than to follow the money — looking out for regeneration zones where millions of pounds are being poured in to build new homes, revive tired high streets and improve transport links. 

We've pinpointed seven key London neighbourhoods where serious cash injections are making the future look bright.

From a transformation of the former Nestlé factory in west London to a regeneration kicked off by Londoners themselves, here are London's top areas to buy in now — and hopefully reap the rewards later.

Walthamstow's transformation

The London borough of culture 2019’s leading neighbourhood is set for a £200 million transformation, a regeneration that was kick-started by Londoners themselves.

The biggest change to the area is a makeover of The Mall, Walthamstow’s shopping centre, set to bring new shops and 450 new homes for buyers priced out of the more fashionable swathes of Hackney.

However it has come in for some criticism, as only 20 per cent of new homes will be earmarked for first-time buyers and renters.

The £200 million project will coincide with Transport for London building a second entrance to adjacent Walthamstow Central station.
