Riverside Park

Ashford

Developed by GRE Assets and designed by award-winning architect Guy Hollaway, Riverside Park delivered 246 apartments, 26 townhouses and a new public realm. Offering contemporary open-plan living, the homes overlook the Great River Stour and nearby Victoria Park.

Perfectly situated, Riverside Park is surrounded by green space while remaining only a short walk from Ashford town centre. The project is the cornerstone of the town’s exciting regeneration.

Local Area

Boasting superb road, rail and air links – in fact it even has its own airport – Ashford is a growing hub of commercial and academic activity with new businesses bringing thousands of new jobs. The town’s connectivity, combined with its excellent amenities and attractive countryside, has attracted thousands of new residents to the area over recent years and has led to Ashford becoming one of the fastest-growing towns in the South East.

Over the past few years alone, there has been some exciting regeneration projects in the town including the launch of the £75 million leisure hub at Elwick Place, the opening of Curious Brewery, the expansion of the Ashford Designer Outlet and Connect 38, the first phase of the new commercial quarter.
