Pocket homes are discounted by 20% to the local market, allowing Pocket owners to own 100% of their home at a discounted price.

This home will have access to a ground floor communal courtyard garden and two communal roof terraces - these spaces have been designed with seating areas to relax and socialise, raised planters and communal growing beds for residents to grow their own produce. Pocket developments always build strong communities, and with these additional spaces to hang out with your neighbours and friends, Forest Road E17 is a pretty special place to buy your first home.

About Pocket Living

London housing

Back in 2005 we had an idea. To help the millions of young, middle earning Londoners who contribute to their city in so many ways, buy their first home.

We started by creating affordable Pocket homes exclusively for local first-time buyers allowing those on lower incomes a way to get their foot on the housing ladder and own a piece of the city they love. The idea worked. More recently, we set up a new division, Pocket Edition.

Our homes

We have a social conscience, of course, but Pocket homes aren’t social housing. They’re private, 100% owned homes, available to eligible first-time buyers for at least 20% less than the market value.

Pocket - affordable one bedroom flats

Our Pocket Edition homes, on the other hand, are available to all, with no restrictions. They meet the needs of city makers looking for an extra bedroom, their own private garden or terrace with generally more living spac
