Lombard Square — Apartments For Sale in Plumstead, SE28

Lombard Square — A Green Oasis in Royal Greenwich

Lombard Square is a landmark new residential development by Berkeley Group, set within the Royal Borough of Greenwich in Plumstead, SE28. Planned around six individually named houses — Myro House, Opal House and Rosa House among the first phases — the development introduces a new kind of community living to East London: generously landscaped, craft-inspired and sustainably built.

Each house at Lombard Square has its own podium garden, while a network of open green spaces, boardwalks and pathways weaves through the entire site. At the heart of the development lies a central Garden Square — the largest green space on site — featuring a picturesque lake, wide lawn areas and thoughtfully designed play spaces. With hundreds of new plants and trees breathing life into the landscape, residents enjoy a genuine sense of space and tranquillity rare at this price point in London.

Six Houses, One Community

The architecture and interior detailing of each house draws direct inspiration from Plumstead's centuries-old craft heritage. Leathercraft, woodwork, tailoring, weaving, textiles, pottery and metalwork are woven into the design language of the homes themselves — a celebration of the skilled tradespeople who shaped this corner of London.

Interiors are finished to Berkeley's exacting standards: fully fitted kitchens with energy-efficient appliances, designer bathrooms with rainfall showers, heated towel rails and porcelain floor tiles, cloud-soft bedroom carpets and fitted wardrobes throughout. Every home comes with a 10-year build warranty, and Berkeley's MyHome Plus platform gives buyers a step-by-step digital view of their purchase from reservation to move-in.

Resident Amenities at Lombard Square

Life at Lombard Square is designed to reduce friction from the everyday. An on-site coffee shop and express food store mean that morning routines are effortless, while an opt-in gym keeps residents active without leaving the neighbourhood. A 24-hour concierge handles everything from parcel management to local bookings, and the development is equipped with electric vehicle charging points and secure bike storage — choices that reflect Berkeley's commitment to sustainable living.

The on-site commercial spaces, planned alongside the residential phases, are designed to complement the wider regeneration of Plumstead and add lasting vitality to the neighbourhood for residents and the local community alike.

Transport Connections — Woolwich Elizabeth Line

Lombard Square is exceptionally well connected for East London. Plumstead Station (National Rail) is a four-minute walk from the development, while Woolwich Arsenal Station — serving the Elizabeth Line, National Rail and DLR — is a 14-minute walk. From Woolwich, Canary Wharf is just eight minutes by Elizabeth Line; Liverpool Street is reached in 15 minutes; Bond Street in 23 minutes; and Heathrow Airport Terminal 2/3 in approximately 53 minutes without changing trains. London City Airport is only five minutes away by DLR.

The Royal Arsenal Riverside lifestyle district is also within easy walking distance, offering a farmers' market, independent restaurants, bars and everyday amenities. Greenwich Park, the National Maritime Museum and the Cutty Sark are a short cycle or bus journey away, while Westfield Stratford — one of London's largest shopping and entertainment destinations — is accessible by DLR in under 25 minutes.

Sustainability at the Heart

Berkeley has embedded sustainability across every layer of Lombard Square. Homes are built to high thermal efficiency standards with Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR), low-energy lighting throughout, dual-flush WCs, low-flow taps and showerheads, and A-rated kitchen appliances. Rainwater harvesting supports the landscaped gardens and lake, while all timber used in construction carries FSC or PEFC certification.

On-site biodiversity has been a guiding principle from the start: the lake is designed not only as a tranquil amenity but as a functioning ecological habitat, supporting wildlife alongside a community of residents.
