It straddles the A13 and extends right down to the River Thames, which serves as its southern border.<\/p>\n Barking has some stiff competition locally, in the form of neighbouring Greenwich and Bexley. However, the western half of this East London borough is a definite up-and-comer, thanks to its designation as a priority urban regeneration recipient.<\/p>\n You can already see how this influx of investment has changed Barking. The town centre, which was finished in 2007, is now a thriving hotspot for festivals, outdoor events and smart shops. Then there’s the ongoing Barking Riverside regeneration scheme<\/a>. This is a major effort to revitalise the southern end of Barking, in the form of the largest housing development in east London, with planning permission for up to 10,800 new homes and masses of local facilities. Already, the area has over half a billion pounds of new transport links, communal infrastructure and modern new build homes to show for it. Once finished, this ‘Barcelona on the Thames’ will be a sight to behold.<\/p>\n This pattern of development plays to Barking’s existing strengths. It is a well-connected part of London, with solid transport links heading both east and west. It’s also a thriving residential area that continues to provide new job opportunities and that rare unicorn in London – affordable housing!<\/p>\n So, if you’re looking to get on the property ladder without breaking the bank, Barking is a solid bet. It has excellent commuter prospects and the area is on the up and up. What’s not to like?<\/p>\nNew build homes in Barking: 10 highest rated developments<\/h2>\n
