In fact, the scheme represents the last new-build space available in the central waterfront area and is, as such, already proving popular.

With eight months still to go until practical completion, the homes – 56 one- and two-bed apartments and two houses – are already 60% sold.

Averaging around £660/sq ft and going up to £940/sq ft for the penthouse apartments, the homes are at the very top end of a burgeoning local market.
