Southern Housing New Homes is proud to introduce Varcoe Corner, an architecturally distinctive, sustainable residential development in the heart of Southwark, one of London’s most dynamic and fast-evolving neighbourhoods. Forming a striking gateway to the Old Kent Road regeneration area, Varcoe Corner sets a new standard for high-quality, community-led living in Southeast London. 

A Catalyst for Change in Southwark

Varcoe Corner is more than just a collection of homes; it's a vital part of a bold and transformative vision for the area. As one of the first key developments within the Old Kent Road Area Action Plan, this project supports Southwark’s ambitions to deliver 20,000 new homes and 10,000 jobs, creating a thriving, inclusive new community. Southern Housing New Homes is proud to play a leading role in shaping the future of this historic yet forward-looking part of the capital. 

Thoughtfully Designed for Modern Living

Designed by the award-winning Benedetti Architects, the 7–9 storey building is a testament to contemporary architecture that balances character with comfort. With distinctive façades, carefully crafted details, and welcoming communal spaces, Varcoe Corner is designed to make a lasting impression, both visually and functionally. 

Inside, residents can choose from 74 beautifully appointed apartments, including a mix of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom homes available through Shared Ownership and London Living Rent. Each home is even bigger than Southwark’s space standards, offering generous layouts, smart storage, and an emphasis on natural light and ventilation through dual-aspect designs.  

Communal rooftop gardens and well-designed amenity areas foster neighbourly interaction and a sense of belonging, reinforcing the project’s commitment to community-focused living. 

Sustainability and Longevity at the Core

At Southern Housing New Homes, sustainability is never an afterthought. Varcoe Corner has been planned with longevity and low-impact living in mind. From energy-efficient materials to thoughtfully landscaped communal areas, every element supports a more sustainable lifestyle, aligned with Southwark Council’s long-term regeneration goals. 

A New Urban Marker 

As one of the first visible signs of the Old Kent Road’s transformation, Varcoe Corner is a bold new urban marker. Its strategic position at the threshold of the regeneration area signals the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Southwark. For young professionals and families looking for new homes in Southwark, Varcoe Corner offers the rare opportunity to buy into a neighbourhood that’s truly on the rise.
