UK: Coliving operator Vonder has opened its flagship property in Wembley, north London, featuring 313 apartments with on-site amenities across more than 160,000 square feet of space.
The company says Vonder Wembley “pioneers the all-inclusive living model of providing renters with everything they need for both their personal and professional lives”.
Located at 1 Olympic Way, next to Wembley Park Tube, Vonder Wembley spans 15 floors and offers 174 studios, 121 one-bedroom apartments, and 18 three-bedroom apartments, all fully furnished.
It also includes 73 co-working desks and three conference rooms, a 1,250 square foot fitness studio, a yoga room, an 18-seat cinema, reception area with pool table, foosball, televisions and communal kitchens and bike storage. In addition, the 14th floor of Vonder Wembley features an 18,000 square foot members’ lounge that can accommodate up to 50 people. The lounge will host community and cultural events and provides panoramic views across London.
Tomer Bercoviz, CEO and co-founder of Vonder, said: “’All-in-one living’ is a new concept that reflects the ever-changing lifestyles of younger renters. Hybrid working and a greater focus on achieving an optimum work-life balance means that people are looking for something that provides them with more for their money. Vonder Wembley is a direct response to the needs of young renters, providing them with high quality, well-designed and inspiring spaces in which they can live, work and socialise. All the communal spaces can be booked easily via our Vonder App, which also allows our members to interact with each other and enjoy additional value-added services.”
“The response from renters has been incredibly positive, with demand outstripping supply for the first phases of apartments available. Vonder Wembley demonstrates that by listening to renters, thinking creatively, and working with the right partners, a new and highly relevant approach can be delivered in such a competitive rental market as London,” he added.
Vonder Wembley join Vonder’s existing London property schemes including Vonder Skies, Vonder Hill, Vonder Shoreditch, and Vonder Village. Vonder’s international portfolio consist of more than 30 locations across London, Berlin, Munich, Warsaw and Dubai. The company is also in active negotiations to increase its portfolio in the UK, the US and continental Europe as it rolls out the ‘all-in-one living’ concept.
