Our Story:
Upton Village
Welcome to Upton Village, a thriving residential community nestled in Newham, London, where rich history and modern living come together. Once the site of the historic Plaistow Hospital, our beautiful estate has been transformed into a haven of contemporary and sustainable homes.
A Vision of Heritage and Modernity
The transformation of Upton Village was led by Peabody, who envisioned a community that would respect the site’s historic roots while offering homes designed for the
modern-era.
By preserving significant elements of the former hospital and introducing thoughtfully crafted new buildings, they created a neighbourhood that balances heritage and innovation.
Homes for the 21st Century
At the heart of Upton Village are the 21st Century Homes, inspired by the classic Victorian terrace yet reimagined for contemporary lifestyles. These homes are designed to:
​
• Evolve With You: Flexible layouts that adapt to changing needs.
• Welcome Natural Light: Bright and airy spaces that uplift daily living.
• Promote Sustainability: Eco-conscious features that are both environmentally and economically friendly.
Preserving Historic Character
Upton Village reflects a deep appreciation for the site’s history, as seen in:
​
• Restored Details: Features like original sash windows and vaulted ceilings have been beautifully preserved.
​
• Iconic Design Elements: Balconies display the Peabody Kaleidoscope pattern, a nod to the estate’s origins and the enduring mission of its creators.
