A stay at a five-star hotel is an unrivalled luxury, often with the convenience of an on-site gym, top-of-the-line concierge service and premium facilities in place to ensure guests are as comfortable as possible throughout their stay. Therefore, it is no wonder hotel-inspired living is an increasing trend amongst home buyers, with elegant apartments designed with a premium lifestyle to match. Set in the heart of the capital, Bellway Homes has delivered a superior collection of luxury hotel style homes at The Residence at Nine Elms, on London's Southbank.

Offering five-star hotel style services, residents will benefit from 24-hour concierge and a private resident's gym. Additional facilities include a media lounge and meeting suite for any business needs, and an on-site gallery for art-lovers. Residents will also enjoy the luxury of restaurants, pavement cafés, hotels, event space, and public art right on their doorstep at Nine Elms, contributing to the allure of the area and enhancing the current prolific arts presence of London's South Bank.

Inspired by contemporary architecture found across the pond in New York, The Residence offers 324 one, two and three-bedroom apartments. Set across 19 storeys, many of the apartments have picturesque views over surrounding parks, piazzas and public gardens of Nine Elms. The exterior design includes glazed coloured tiles and selected bricks to imitate the style of Manhattan's mansion blocks with a modern twist. Each apartment features floor to ceiling windows, premium kitchen appliances, and spa-like fittings to the bathrooms.

Emma Denton, Sales Director Designate at Bellway Thames Gateway, comments: “The Residence hosts a wealth of luxurious facilities for home buyers to enjoy, emulating the experience of living in a five-star hotel. Located opposite the new American Embassy, the regeneration of Nine Elms is creating an exciting new quarter in the city, with a wealth of retail opportunities, fine dining, theatre and art galleries to explore. The Zone 1 location also ensures excellent transport links, with the extension of London Underground's Northern Line set to improve travel around London even further. In order to appreciate the superior quality of homes at The Residence, we would encourage potential buyers to visit the development to see all that is on offer.”

For retail opportunities, new outdoor shopping areas and parades are a major focus of Battersea's renovation, set to attract large and small retailers, and improve existing stores in the locality. The environment will also be remodelled with a linear park stretching from Battersea Power Station to Vauxhall Cross, offering footpaths and cycle routes linking with the Thames River Path.

Currently, the closest tube station is Vauxhall Underground Station accessing the Victoria Line, less than a 15-minute walk from The Residence. The extension of London Underground's Northern Line is introducing two new stations at Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station. Expected to be in operation by 2020, the work will hugely improve travel by tube into central, north and south London. Residents will have a short walk to the new station and a quick 12-minute journey into the City, or eight minutes to Westminster, ideal for when visitors come to stay.

Prices at The Residence start at £615,000 for a one-bedroom apartment, £840,000 for a two-bedroom apartment and £1,190,000 for a three-bedroom apartment. To register your interest and for further details, please visit www.bellway.co.uk or call 0203 092 9677.
