Peninsula Gardens launched to a receptive Hong Kong and global markets, with 94% of the first release of homes sold over opening weekend in late September 2022. Knight Dragon is now set to bring forward a further limited collection of homes from a future phase to meet strong Hong Kong demand.
The largest single regeneration the capital has seen in a generation, Greenwich Peninsula has 5,000 residents already calling it home and receives three million visitors a year. The enhanced masterplan, increasing the scale of the new district to over 17,000 homes, is now underway. A partnership with The Mayor of London and Greater London Authority (GLA) has been announced that will further increase the speed of delivery of the ambitious 150-acre neighbourhood.
Kerri Sibson, Chief Operating Officer at Knight Dragon, comments: "Greenwich Peninsula is now almost 10 years in progress, and the success of Peninsula Gardens marks an impressive milestone in the journey as the neighbourhood continues to flourish and grow. With over 5,000 residents calling the Peninsula home, over 300 creative businesses in residence at the Design District and a strategic partnership in place with the GLA to increase the pace and delivery of homes, our commitment to London is as strong as ever.
"The response to the launch of Peninsula Gardens has been overwhelming, with domestic and global buyers highly receptive to what is a very exciting new offering on the Peninsula. The strength of demand is testament to the enduring appeal of London property, and, more specifically, the unique proposition of Greenwich Peninsula."
Urosh Teodorovich, Associate Director at Savills, comments: "The success of the recent launch of Peninsula Gardens in the UK has been replicated in Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing markets achieving high sales rates for the first building in the scheme and has rapidly become one of the top-selling schemes of 2022. The success of the launch is testament to Knight Dragon's strong reputation, Greenwich Peninsula's long term capital growth prospects, and proven rental track record. Peninsula Garden's transport connectivity, its appealing riverside location and proximity to Canary Wharf, means it ticks a lot of boxes for those looking to move to and invest in London – where the rental market is hugely undersupplied. The ongoing appeal of London as a global city – with its theatres, restaurants, and world-class education options – should continue to be a magnet for wealth. All these factors are adding to an optimistic outlook for subsequent launches for Greenwich Peninsula in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur."
