Spring is blooming and at Silkstream green space presents itself at the heart of the community. As summer fast approaches, Silkstream’s public outdoor spaces come to life, bringing conservation, connectivity and nature together to enhance mental and physical wellbeing. These bright areas encourage residents to connect with nature, engage in outdoor activities; and once complete this neighbourhood will enjoy a peaceful environment and a nature-rich parkland that is set to achieve an ambitious biodiversity net gain score of 895%. 

A Tranquillity of Nature and Community in Your Back Garden

Allowing flora and fauna to flourish, the expert team behind Silkstream is working closely with the London Wildlife Trust to preserve the local environment. Residents and visitors will enjoy 1.4 acres of beautifully curated gardens, a brand new 1.5-acre public park and a 175-metre oxbow lake and the regeneration of a nearby waterway. 

Central to this rejuvenated landscape is 300 metres of the Silk Stream itself, a tributary of the River Brent that feeds into the Welsh Harp Reservoir. Restored and revitalised, the stream will enhance Hendon’s green credentials and provide a peaceful, biodiverse haven for the community.

In the meantime, the new homes at Silkstream sit adjacent to three elevated private gardens, each unique and inspired by one of the landscapes that define the rich natural tapestry of Britain. These gardens offer Silkstream residents a refreshing space to rejuvenate after a lively day in the city.
