Sunny Outlook

10.07.22

Frasers Property UK has recently launched a wonderful, 908 square foot two-bedroom apartment perfect for making the most out of the British summer in Nine Eastfileds at Riverside Quarter. Priced at £955,000, the apartment boasts a 122.17 square foot private balcony overlooking the River Thames, Wandsworth Park under 10 minute’s walk away and access to the Uber Boat by Thames Clipper within the development to transport homeowners across London to other summer hotspots.

92% of people, surveyed by The Homebuyer Wishlist, stated that access to outdoor space is important to them in their home buying search, and 40% of people surveyed by Natural England claiming that visiting local green spaces have been more important to their well-being since lockdown. While outdoor space is important for well-being all year round, it is particularly beneficial heading into the British summer months where balconies become part of daily routines and weekend park visits are a must. The river view balcony, multitude of parks within easy access by walking or Uber Boat, and the bustling community within the Riverside Quarter development, make the Nine Eastfields apartment truly unique.

The newly launched apartment is on the fifth-floor of Nine Eastfields which is a 14 storey building and is the final phase of the overall Riverside Quarter scheme which completes the regeneration of the site, once a former Shell oil terminal. The building consists of six one-bedroom apartments, 28 two-bedroom apartments with winter gardens and 45 two-bedroom apartments with private balconies providing views over the River Thames and the River Wandle, a resident’s lap pool and gymnasium alongside commercial space which are now all completed.

The bright apartment is entered through a short hallway, creating a sense of separation and privacy from the rest of the building and the main floor hallway. From the hallway the apartment opens into an expansive open-plan living/ dining / kitchen area with an L-shaped kitchen maximising the available floor space. Floor to ceiling windows and a floor to ceiling glass door allow expanses of light to flood into the living space which is reflected off the mirrored splashbacks in the kitchen. Warm orange, red and yellow tones have been used throughout the soft furnishings in the living room, contrasted with the fresh greens of house plants drawing the nature and sunlight light, framed through the windows, into the space.

Due to the clever placing of the furniture three defined zones have been created within the living space, alongside the kitchen, showcasing how buyers can transform their homes to suit their everyday needs. The living space with a wall mounted TV has been clearly separated by the use of warm wooden panelling behind the TV, a large rug underneath the sofa and bright pops of colour in the cushions. The dining area is emphasised by bright orange dining chairs around the table while on the opposite wall is a desk/shelving unit which maximises the use of the space, by being narrow but tall, for post-lockdown living where most people are working from home on a flexible basis.

Entered off the living room is the balcony with expansive views over The Thames and plenty of space for multiple seating and dining options allowing for buyers to utilise the space from sunrise to sunset basking in the natural light and fresh air.

The principal bedroom of the property and the guest bedroom are decorated in a similar colour palette to that of the living area, creating bright warm welcoming spaces, and both have built in wardrobes to maximise floor space. Both bedrooms have views over the river with the guest bedroom also having access to the balcony through a floor to ceiling glass door. The principal bedroom en-suite, and family bathroom are modern and sleek with floor to ceiling tiles, large mirrors and clean porcelain toilet and sink. The sleek stainless-steel taps and rain showers further emphasise the luxury feel of this apartment.

The apartment illustrates the high quality of specification and potential of the homes at Riverside Quarter. Each apartment can be made truly unique to each buyer whilst consistently feeling elegant and luxurious.

Residents benefit from all of the existing amenities at Riverside Quarter which include a swimming pool alongside a lap pool and gymnasium at Nine Eastfields. The new building has a 24-hour estate management including concierge and porterage service and video door entry systems.

The Uber Boat by Thames Clipper pier is located within the Riverside Quarter development. Along the Thames Clipper route the piers take riders close to Battersea Park, St James’ Park, Green Park and Hyde Park along with South Bank and St Katherine’s Docks – all popular summer spots within easy reach from Riverside Quarter. By using the service from Wandsworth Riverside Quarter Pier, passengers will arrive at Putney Pier within five minutes, Chelsea Harbour in 12 minutes, Cadogan Pier in 18 minutes, Battersea Power Station in 24 minutes, Embankment in 39 minutes and Westminster in 40 minutes.

David Skelton, Director of Sales and Marketing at Frasers Property UK, commented: “This newly launched apartment at Nine Eastfields is truly the perfect home for those who appreciate outdoor space not just in the summer but who enjoy easy access to it all year round. The apartment reflects the tastes and expectations of buyers we have seen at Riverside Quarter with its luxury furnishings and adaptable space. With completion of the regeneration of the area and the production of a landmark Wandsworth scheme, Frasers Property UK are pleased to be marketing the final apartments at Nine Eastfields and look forward to welcoming potential buyers through the doors to join the already thriving community at Riverside Quarter.”
