From the data first.
St William’s Fulham Gasworks neighbourhood: Saxon House lets at band B, and the world’s oldest gasholder anchors the plan.
The evidence · live data
What lets here, and at what
Letting here means letting inside a scheme that is still building out, and we price for both sides of that. Saxon House itself is finished evidence — every certificate we sampled is band B, with a 25m pool, gym and 24-hour concierge in the residents’ offer — while later phases mean an active developer sales operation and construction on site. Heat and hot water come from a community scheme, metered and billed through the building, and the tenant cannot switch supplier — say it at enquiry, and set expectations about the estate around the flat as honestly as the flat itself.

Questions we get asked
Letting at King’s Road Park
Is King’s Road Park build-to-rent?
No. HM Land Registry records 144 transactions at Saxon House, every one a leasehold flat sale and 139 of them new-build first sales — individually owned, not an operator block. The honest twist: while later phases complete, you also let alongside an active developer sales operation on site, so presentation and pricing have to be right on day one.
Does King’s Road Park have communal heating?
Yes. Saxon House certificates record both space heating and hot water as a “Community scheme” — metered per flat, billed through the building, and the tenant cannot choose a supplier. Tell an applicant before they commit; it is the most common surprise in buildings like this.
What EPC rating are King’s Road Park flats?
Every Saxon House certificate we sampled is band B — well clear of the band E legal floor for letting under the Energy Efficiency (Private Rented Property) (England and Wales) Regulations 2015, and a genuine advantage on portals against older Fulham stock.
What is the gasholder at King’s Road Park?
Gasholder No.2, built 1829–30 — Grade II* listed and, in Historic England’s words, “by far the oldest surviving gasholder in the world”. Its restoration as the centrepiece of the estate’s public space was approved in January 2026. For a landlord it cuts both ways: a genuine amenity story once delivered, and live construction in the meantime — set a tenant’s expectations honestly.
