KUALA LUMPUR: UK property developer Berkeley Homes has brought its Waterfront I development in London to Malaysia. Its marketing agent, Knight Frank Malaysia, has been showcasing the development on a private appointment basis starting Monday.

“Royal Arsenal Riverside has a combination of historic and contemporary buildings. The launch of Waterfront I highlights Berkeley’s commitment to bring central London chic to southeast London,” said Lyndon Nunn, sales director of Berkeley Homes.

Waterfront I comprises 91 units of studio and bedroom apartments, as well as penthouses. The built-up ranges between 445 sq ft for studio units and 1,640 sq ft for penthouses. It is expected to be completed by late 2017 with a 999-year lease tenure. It will be situated in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, London, adjacent to a new community park.

“The new park, which is equivalent to 13 Olympic-sized swimming pools, will provide the local community with a peaceful outdoor space, while bringing Crossrail, Royal Arsenal Riverside and the River Thames closer together,” said Nunn.

The development will benefit from a Crossrail station due to be operational in 2018. Nearby amenities include a pub, cafe, health and well-being centre, an upcoming Sainsbury’s supermarket and easy access to the historic Greenwich town centre.
