With the large-scale regeneration programme underway, King's Cross has shed its previous reputation of sleazy bed and breakfast hotels, prostitution and drunks, and is set to become one of London's liveliest urban areas. One of the redevelopment programmes is the "Regent's Quarter" which is designed for all kinds of purposes - from offices to contemporary flats, luxury apartments to shops, restaurants and bars which will inject new life in to this North London area, and will make it a good investment prospect for property buyers. King's Cross covers two postcodes of N1 and WC1. Properties for sale in King's Cross vary in style ranging from ex-council properties, houses that have been converted in to flats and some sought after warehouse developments along Regent's Canal.
