Situated in Nine Elms, London’s newest and most impressive riverside neighbourhood, Sky Gardens is a mixed residential and commercial space with spectacular views across the capital from its lush enclosed gardens.
The Development
Designed by architects Carey Jones Chapman Tolcher, Sky Gardens includes a single storey podium, an eight-storey block and a 36-storey tower which houses 178 private, shared and affordable apartments, as well as two spectacular penthouses.
But it’s the garden element of this scheme that really makes it stand out from the crowd. The two-storey garden on the 8tn floor and the 2500sqm rooftop garden on the 35th floor are designed by award-winning landscape architects Gillsepsies, and are lush, green organic spaces that are only available for residents and their guests. The gardens have been designed for all year-round use, with temperature and humidity controlled to ensure maximum enjoyment.
You can sit here surrounded by nature at the end of the day and enjoy a panoramic view of the capital as the sun sets. The gardens include an area for residents to grow a weekly salad box each for nine months of the year. Gillespies also designed the open public space at ground level.
All apartments are available as 1 or 2-bedroom suites, and each comes with floor to ceiling windows and a private winter garden terrace, offering spectacular views of the London skyline. Interiors are designed by YOO Design using high-quality materials and attention to detail. Comfort cooling and underfloor heating is available throughout.
In 2014, Sky Gardens won 'Best Housing Project' at the Sunday Times British Homes Awards.
Close By
Located in an area that includes the new American Embassy and Battersea Power Station development, Sky Gardens is surrounded by cool bars, eateries and entertainment spaces. Across Vauxhall Bridge, Pimlico and Victoria are within easy reach.
