Deptford Foundry is part of Convoys Wharf, also known as the “Hong Kong of the UK,” a £1 billion investment in Deptford by Hong Kong tycoon Mr. Li Ka-shing. The project received approval in 2020. Deptford’s history bears some resemblance to Hong Kong’s familiar areas such as Taikoo Shing and Whampoa, as it was once home to shipyards and docks. Today, Deptford still has a large amount of undeveloped space with strong potential for future development. Once multiple residential projects are completed, the area is expected to attract a wide range of commercial facilities, giving it strong capital appreciation potential. The growth of commercial activity in the area will also create more employment opportunities, with estimates of over 2,000 new jobs and 1,200 construction-related positions. Combined with increasingly mature community facilities, the area’s future appreciation is highly promising.

In recent years, nearby areas such as Canary Wharf (London’s emerging financial hub), London Bridge, and Greenwich have been rapidly developing, further boosting property values in Deptford and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Additionally, Deptford itself is a vibrant cultural and arts district, home to numerous local businesses, restaurants, galleries, and theatres. Located on the banks of the Thames, it offers a relaxed and enjoyable lifestyle, making it highly suitable for middle-class professionals.
