High-amenity riverside apartment with Sky Pool and concierge services.
949 sq ft two-bed, two-bath apartment with balcony facing communal gardens
A bright, well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment (949 sq ft) in Legacy Building, part of the high-spec Embassy Gardens development. The open-plan reception and dining area flows onto a large balcony overlooking peaceful communal gardens — a rare bit of calm in this vibrant riverside quarter. Fit-out includes underfloor heating, comfort cooling and a smart integrated kitchen, making the apartment move-in ready for professionals or tenants.
Residents benefit from exceptional on-site amenities: the much-photographed Sky Pool, indoor pool, 24-hour concierge, cinema room and residents’ lounges, which support strong rental appeal and lifestyle credentials. Transport is straightforward with Nine Elms station nearby and easy access to riverside shops, cafes and restaurants.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with a high annual service charge (£8,300) and ground rent (£750). The development was completed in 2016 and is generally well maintained, but these running costs materially affect total ownership yield. The surrounding census indicators show an inner-city, deprived area classification despite a local white-collar worker presence — consider longer-term area regeneration when assessing capital growth.
This apartment suits buyers seeking a low-maintenance, high-amenity London home or investors targeting premium lettings in a landmark development. It delivers immediate lifestyle appeal and tenant demand, but budget for substantial service charges and leasehold ownership costs when calculating returns.
