London renters can now find out more about moving to a prestigious new address at the former Athletes’ Village with the opening of the Get Living London Management Office at East Village.

The new office and exhibition space will allow visitors to find out more about the high-quality homes and new way of renting Get Living London has to offer in the capital’s newest neighbourhood.

The Management Office will also become a permanent neighbourhood hub with a dedicated team in place to respond quickly and efficiently to East Village residents’ needs.

Get Living London, the residential owner and rental management company, unveiled prices and show apartments for its new homes at East Village last month.  

From this week, Londoners will be able to visit the Management Office to discover more about the new homes available, discuss their rental requirements and arrange a viewing of one of the show apartments. There has been a huge interest in Get Living London’s new private rental homes so far, with more than 80 viewings already booked this week.

 With acclaimed designer Wayne Hemingway MBE and his HemingwayDesign team appointed to oversee the interior design of the new homes, viewings of the show apartments arranged by Get Living London will give prospective renters an exclusive first look at the new standard of homes, interior design and furnishings Get Living London offers for the rental market.

Get Living London has a range of private rental homes at East Village to suit everyone, from 1 and 2-bedroom apartments for young professionals and couples, to 3 and 4-bedroom apartments and townhouses for sharers and families. Prices start from £310 per week for a 1 bedroom apartment, £370 per week for a 2 bedroom apartment, £475 per week for a 3 bedroom apartment, and £515 per week for a 4 bedroom townhouse.

All will feature as standard fitted wardrobes in all bedrooms, wooden flooring in all living areas, fitted curtains and blinds, underfloor heating and modern kitchens with fully-integrated appliances. In addition, homes will be offered either unfurnished or furnished at no extra cost, with high-end furniture packages selected by the HemingwayDesign team, setting new standards of furnishing for the private rental market.

Derek Gorman, Chief Executive of Get Living London, commented, “With our show apartments and prices unveiled, we have seen a huge amount of interest in the new private rental homes at East Village with more than 80 viewings already booked. The opening of the Management Office is the first chance for Londoners to come and find out more about Get Living London’s homes and new way of renting at London’s newest neighbourhood.”

Along with the private rental homes, a range of shared ownership, intermediate rent and social rent homes are also available in East Village through Triathlon Homes. All of the homes set within East Village offer renters the chance to live in a prestigious new address on the doorstep of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and in one of the best-connected parts of London. The new homes are set within a landscaped area the size of St James’ Park featuring new parklands, trees, public areas and open space.

The new homes at East Village are now undergoing final checks and fittings by the Olympic Delivery Authority with the first properties to be delivered to Get Living London and Triathlon Homes in the coming weeks, ready for the first residents to move in shortly afterwards.
