Overview
Introducing an exciting new scheme to Westminster, with the option of renting a flat at Dibdin House for 3 years and then receiving an enhanced deposit to purchase a property elsewhere in Greater London. The scheme, designed to help first-time buyers who live or work in Westminster get on the ladder in London has been launched in a bid to tackle the affordability crisis in the capital. Dolphin Living, an affordable homes provider, and charity, has teamed up with Westminster Council to offer an accelerator programme – the first of its kind in the UK – which will boost an applicant’s deposit while they pay reduced rent. Dibdin House is set within an established 1930s building with a communal garden we offer a range of newly refurbished apartments located in Maida Vale, London. The available flats are located the ground, 1st, 2nd and 4th floor. The building is within 8 minute walking distance from Maida Vale Underground Station and is close to major bus routes, with easy access to local shops and the world famous Marble Arch and Oxford Street.
