What's it like?
The first phase of development will see the development of The Ambassador building, crafted from traditional brick it has been designed into six distinct and intimate areas for discreet and private access. The Ambassador building will comprise luxury suites, one and two-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom penthouses rising to 19 stories. With tall ceilings and open-plan designs all apartments promise an attractive and generous sense of proportion. The high quality specification chosen will include oak parquet flooring, walnut veneer, comfort cooling, beautifully designed kitchens and marble bathrooms. All apartments have either balconies or winter gardens to complement the abundant natural light from the floor to ceiling windows and offer attractive riverside views of London landmarks.
With the US Embassy at the heart, Embassy Gardens comprises approximately 15 acres. Planned by the highly regarded master planner Sir Terry Farrell, the development is strongly influenced by the architectural style of New York’s meatpacking district and London’s Victorian and Edwardian mansion blocks to create a distinctive style for what Ballymore are describing as London’s newest landmark destination.
A key element of the overall master-plan for Nine Elms is Linear Park, which runs the length of Embassy Gardens and ends at Battersea Park creating beautiful, green open spaces, gardens and walkways. Landscaped gardens, a riverfront walk offering access to the River Thames and the vibrancy of bars and restaurants will provide a variety of al fresco spaces for relaxation and enjoyment.
