The tranquility of a canal-side frontage, excellent transport links, close proximity to Canary Wharf and other amenities specially upgraded for the London Olympics make Waterside E1 one of the most sought after developments on the market.
Overlooking scenic Regent's Canal, the 24-unit six-storey block offers a choice of layouts and the promise of appreciating values and attractive rental yields.
'This is an outstanding new development with a superb setting,' says Richard Teoh, sales director of Hamptons International (HK), who is overseeing the launch of the project in Hong Kong. 'It offers a rare opportunity for luxurious living, just five minutes walk from connections to London's extensive transport network and only a few hundred metres from wide open parkland and the conservation area of Stepney Green.'
The apartments, due for completion in June next year, offer a selection of one-, two- and three-bedroom units. All come with a balcony or terrace, and also to consider are two-bedroom triplex and three-bedroom duplex units.
The architects and developer have maximised natural light by using full-height windows and configurations that make the most of the open-plan living space. To enhance comfort and style, the interiors feature top-quality fittings that combine classic and contemporary styles - each kitchen includes ceramic floor tiling, a single stainless steel sink, Manhattan units, a Zanussi electric fan over the oven along with a four-ring electric hob plus hood. The integrated range of appliances also features a large fridge-freezer and a washer/dryer.
Main living and dining areas have wood-strip flooring and are equipped with television and broadband connections.
What allows each bathroom and en suite to stand out is the choice of white Roca Laura contemporary ware. This is an ideal match for the ceramic wall and floor tiling and is set off by the polished chrome down-lighting.
