Living In The Fast Lane

Thanks to a luxurious new development by Escapade, petrolheads will be able to purchase prime property metres from the iconic Silverstone track. Abode2 takes a closer look

Lifestyle-led property developer, Escapade, is in collaboration with Silverstone – the home of British motor racing, to offer luxury trackside homes. Newly revealed images of the project show just how incredible the final residences will look and feel.

Escapade is all about creating out-of-this-world destinations that are entirely integrated with their surroundings, and you won’t find a project that underpins that concept more than this one.

Escapade Silverstone seamlessly merges hospitality and motorsport in a way that has never been done before. The result is a statement of design sitting in a thrilling spot, metres from the world’s best racing circuit.

This magnificent motorsport-inspired project offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Silverstone, while enjoying access to one of the world’s most celebrated racetracks, as the live action unfolds right in front of your living space.

With operation set to start from June 2023, in time for next year’s Grand Prix, the development received planning consent at the end of 2019 and broke ground in October 2020.

The development will comprise 60 luxury residences and a clubhouse, giving guests the chance to live out their racing ambitions and enjoy unparalleled sightlines of the famous circuit.

TRACKSIDE LUXURY

Designed for high performance living, the clubhouse and facilities include state-of-the-art simulator rooms, briefing rooms, a driver-focused gym, swimming pool and sauna, restaurant, bar and private dining room - as well as a roof terrace with far-reaching views overlooking the track.

The residences themselves have cantilevered terraces, allowing spectators to get even closer to the racetrack. Light-filled and with high acoustic specifications, they have underfloor heating, comfort cooling and ensuite bathrooms.

When an owner is not staying in their residence, it will form part of the wider accommodation available to guests at Silverstone and offer a healthy net yield.

Escapade Silverstone enables owners to capitalise on the 1.2 million visitors that the circuit welcomes every year. It is a reimagining of leisure, lifestyle and investing: putting capital into something that provides entertainment, enrichment, enjoyment and learning, while also making a return.

Residences are fully managed, from all upkeep and maintenance to the organising of stays and revenue distribution. Owners will also be granted founding membership, giving free access for all major race events, use of the clubhouse, priority track access and exclusive invites to owner-only events, track days and trips.

Residences are provided on a 125-year lease and owners will be able to use them as they wish up to a certain number of nights per year. Usage nights are calculated to enable maximum utilisation of a property – for owners as guests and investors.

Escapade Silverstone will also provide climate-controlled car storage, allowing owners to securely store vehicles when not in use.

This facility, less than 500 meters from the edge of the Silverstone circuit, will offer full pre and post-use preparation and inspection – allowing guests to turn up and make the most of their time on the track.

Escapade Founder and CEO, Will Tindall comments: “Escapade is the ultimate destination for motorsports and automotive enthusiasts. We are at an exciting stage of construction, with the first trackside garages now springing up. We’re looking forward to opening from mid-2023 and surpassing all expectations with our hospitality offering, the quality of the architecture, the spaces and of the access to this famous venue.”
