More than 60 percent of sales at Riverdale House, Galliard Homes’ new project n Lewisham, London, have been made to buyers from Asia and India, according to the British developer.
Buyers, the developer reported, have been attracted by the regeneration opportunity provided by the project, and its proximity to the City of London.
Currently more than 50 percent of the 137 luxury apartments at Riverdale House are now sold as part of the first phase launch, with the next phase being released next month to coincide with the opening of a new sales suite on site at the development.
David Galman, Sales Director at Galliard Homes, said: “The first phase have all sold off-plan. Purchasers have been a combination of domestic and overseas end-user and investor buyers, with more than 60 percent originating from the Asian and Indian communities.
“Buyers have been attracted by the regeneration opportunity of both the building and Lewisham town centre, and the location’s easy access to the City of London and Canary Wharf. We will release phase two of the scheme in September 2014 with the unveiling of a new sales suite on site.”
Riverdale House consists of the conversion of a landmark office building into a riverside scheme of studio, one- and two- bedroom apartments complete with communal roof terraces, lower ground parking, reflection pool and historic Victorian mill with retained water wheel.
Lewisham is well served for public transport. It is five minutes to Greenwich, eight minutes to London Bridge and 17 minutes to Charing Cross. Canary Wharf is 18 minutes away, whilst it takes 23 minutes to reach Bank.
The new residential development will have a double height entrance and reception foyer, providing a stunning first impression for visitors. Grand stairwells and communal corridors will be complimented by high-speed lifts serving all floors including the lower ground car parking and cycle storage facility. On the 4th and 5th level of the stepped building there will be large communal rooftop terraces for the private use of residents of Riverdale House.
Prices at Riverdale House start from £237,000.
