We have all experienced that annoying wait when streaming images or viewing a video or website. Problems with connections and buffering at home is a bugbear for many people daily.  But imagine living somewhere where you will have the fastest internet connection available in the UK, in fact 27 times faster. With over half of consumers shown to get a bad deal when it comes to broadband according to Which, a home at The Residence in Nine Elms offers the solution.

Each apartment by Bellway Homes at The Residence benefits from the fastest broadband in the UK.

Hyperoptic’s 1GB network is available throughout the building, which provides hyper fast speeds with unlimited downloads. This means that whether broadband is used for business or leisure it remains fast and reliable, good to know when according to the Office of National Statistics, 50% of the UK workforce will be working from home by 2020.

The Residence offers a selection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments set across five blocks, many of the apartments have picturesque views over surrounding parks, piazzas and public gardens of Nine Elms. And although Bellway know purchasers will not buy an apartment based on the broadband service they know it is becoming increasingly important.

Emma Denton, Sales Director Designate at Bellway Thames Gateway, comments: “Fibre optic cables have been laid all the way to the building providing the fastest broadband option available. At Bellway we want to provide the very best to our residents down to the smallest detail and that for us includes the internet. Bad internet connections impact on everyday life so we wanted to provide a solution to this for our residence. This, coupled with many on-site facilities is a development, potential house buyers should visit to see what’s on offer.”

In addition to the fastest broadband service, each apartment at The Residence features floor to ceiling windows, premium kitchen appliances, and spa-like fittings to the bathrooms. There’s a 24-hour concierge service and a resident’s gym, media lounge and meeting room for all residents use.

The Residence is located close to the new outdoor shopping areas and parades all a major focus of Battersea’s renovation, set to attract large and small retailers, and improve existing stores in the locality. The environment is also remodelled with a linear park stretching from Battersea Power Station to Vauxhall Cross, offering footpaths and cycle routes linking with the Thames River Path.

Travel connections are also great; 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.
