Olly Vincent Case Study
“I realised the apartments offer more space at an affordable price and a better quality finish.”
Olly’s Three G Apartment
Redrow understands how difficult it can be for first time buyers to get on the property ladder. We also know how important it is for you to make the right decision on buying your first home.
But don’t just take our word that Barking Central is a first time buyer’s heaven – hear it straight from the horse’s mouth.
Olly Vincent (30) wanted three things from his first property purchase – good quality, good value and good investment potential.
This three G criteria was satisfied when he found Barking Central, and he soon realised Redrow had designed this scheme with first time buyers in mind, offering affordable apartments without compromising on value, size or quality.
“Barking Central is located in the town centre which is currently undergoing lots of change and will benefit from the massive regeneration plans for the Olympics.
“The transport links from Barking are a commuter’s dream and there is a real sense of community spirit..there are always people around to talk to.”
Barking Central was commended at the Daily Telegraph Your New Homes Awards 2007 in the Best First Time Buyer category.

“The minimalist and contemporary interior design of the apartment makes it easy to keep neat and tidy. I work hard, so I enjoy coming back to the tranquillity of my own apartment either to relax, entertain my friends or even to work from home,” concludes Olly.
At the recent 2007 Daily Telegraph/Your New Home Awards, ‘Barking Central’ won ‘Best Brownfield Site’ and was also highly commended in the ‘Best First Time Buyer’ category.
