Abode, award-winning designer and distributor of market leading kitchen taps & sinks, Pronteau hot water taps, bathroom taps & showering solutions work together with contractor Bone & Bowler, Cherwell Interiors and leading property developer, Regal London, on the capital’s latest boutique Zone 1 development, The Haydon.
Part of a multi-use regeneration in The Minories, The Haydon is a new residential-led development in the city’s ‘Square Mile’ near Aldgate High Street and offers 87 luxury homes that range from studio and three-bedroom apartments up to the 13th floor, and three duplex/penthouses situated across floors 14 and 15. As one of London’s most dynamic new City residences, The Haydon (completed in early 2024) is brilliantly located, connected and designed to form a unique urban oasis and deliver modern urban living at its best.
Graeme Blythe, National Contract Sales Manager at Abode says, “Creating new homes in complex urban settings means engaging with multiple stakeholders and ensuring meticulous attention to detail for a cohesive solution. The Haydon is a world class site which appeals to international buyers as well as Londoners, so we were delighted to collaborate with Dubai-based bespoke interior design specialists, Cherwell Interiors, the kitchen furniture supplier, and Bone and Bowler, the Kent-based installers. The developer, Regal London, is one of the capital’s leading residential-led mixed-use developers and is committed to net zero carbon developments, maximising biodiversity and focussing on intelligent design so selecting robust, sustainable products like the Abode stainless-steel sinks and taps was vital to the project’s success and very much in keeping with our commitment to ESG and design-led innovation.”
Given the sophisticated nature of this prime London development, Abode supplied both its Propus Single Lever tap in Stainless Steel and bestselling R15 Matrix large single bowl stainless steel sink. The modern minimalist styling of the WRAS-approved Propus Single Lever includes a slender body and wide-angled spout complementing the kitchen aesthetic. The luxurious stainless-steel finish adds to the contemporary feel of Propus which is manufactured with a five-year warranty.
The Abode R15 Matrix Large Single Bowl stainless steel sink ensures that homeowners can take care of food prep and home hygiene with ease. The very latest pressing technology has been used to create a very precise shape to the sink with almost square radiuses to ensure that the kitchen planning team could make the most of the available worktop space without compromising on style. The Matrix R15 Large Single Bowl is also versatile in its installation and can be installed undermounted or as a low profile inset option. It has a ten-year warranty and delivers on durability as well as designer style.
Located in The City’s ‘Square Mile’, The Haydon is a two-minute walk from Aldgate Underground Station and five minutes from Fenchurch Street Station. It’s easy for residents to do business in Canary Wharf, window shop on Bond Street or enjoy a stroll in Green Park.
Embracing the essence of urban living, The Haydon seamlessly combines comfort, style, and an array of meticulously crafted amenities. Residents can enjoy a contemporary gymnasium equipped with a luxurious spa pool, alongside a dedicated yoga room and fitness studio. In addition, residents enjoy the privileges of a cutting-edge private cinema, an inviting outdoor terrace, beautifully landscaped gardens, a dedicated 24hr concierge service, secure underground parking and convenient bicycle storage facilities.
The Haydon was launched in 2022, following the completion of nearby Canopy by Hilton London City hotel and stands out as a unique and modern landmark that beautifully blends with its urban surroundings. It combines high-quality craftsmanship and adventurous design, taking inspiration from Aldgate’s rich history which dates from Roman times. Each apartment is an individual work of art with natural stone and marble finishes, oak flooring, the best appliances and fittings combining with breath-taking views from floor to ceiling window frames.
The brief for The Haydon specified innovative, user-friendly luxury solutions which meet strict criteria for ESG, so the Abode products, along with appliances by Miele, are key to the elegant kitchens at The Haydon which were specified by Cherwell Interiors. The extensive brief required a signature wet zone with durability and sustainability designed-in, so the minimal design, WRAS-approval and emphasis on high quality from Abode will assist so many homeowners in this exciting part of the City.
