Regent Square is a private gated development built in the late 1970’s. There are eighty-four purpose-built apartments with one-to-one parking. It is set out in a series of three-story buildings surrounded by mature, well cared for, attractive and peaceful communal gardens.

This part of Bow has seen lots of improvement in recent years due to a number of high-profile good quality housing developments which started in 2010-12 with the redevelopment of the St Andrews hospital site next to Bromley-By Bow tube station.

Most recently and just next door to Regent Square, the 1960’s precinct style development in Stroudley Walk has now been replaced with a primarily residential property lead development with some commercial and community open spaces created. This development is called Upper East https://uppereast-apartments.co.uk/ These apartments have just been completed and are available for sale, should you wish to know the latest prices and buyer incentives, Look Property can schedule a viewing for you.

Upper East adds to the already improving local environment.

Parking: Each of the eighty-four flats in Regent Square benefits from a secure parking space or a garage. There are also some visitor parking spaces. This flat has parking space number 8 included.

Secure gated development: There is an electric vehicular gate on Bruce Road which is controlled by a remote control. The gates can be connected to the residents mobile phone number so there is an intercom. There are three pedestrian gates, the first next to the vehicular gate, the other two are on the North side of Regent Square with access to a pedestrian walkway which cuts down the journey time walking to Bow Road tube station and Bow Church DLR.
