11th March 2008 Print
Waterfront living at The Marina in Gravesend Fancy a slice of waterside living with excellent commuter links to London? Look no further than award winning housebuilder, Bellway Thames Gateway South developments, The Marina and the Embankment, the jewels in the crown of Gravesend’s canal basin.

Just 25 miles from the City, the market town of Gravesend, on the south bank of the River Thames, is the superb location for these stunning new waterside developments of one and two bedroom apartments at The Marina and The Embankment.

Located minutes away from the historic maritime town’s centre, the central location of these developments in Canal Road means that residents are literally minutes from the town centre, the surrounding countryside and the River Thames.

The developments benefits from excellent rail and road transport links with Gravesend Station less than a mile from the development, offering direct services into London Bridge with a journey time of about 50 minutes. The Dartford crossing is just 8 miles from the town providing easy access to the M25.

Gravesend is within reach of the new Channel rail link station at nearby Ebbsfleet, which will make travel to the Continent as easy as a trip to London.

Bellway Thames Gateway South’s Sales Director, Lyn Neale, says: “The distinctive location of The Marina and The Embankment will appeal to people who want to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and be able to step outside their apartment to take time out and enjoy the views.

“The proximity of Gravesend’s shopping area, restaurants and bars and excellent transport links has also added tremendously to the appeal of the scheme. A real plus is that with regular train services from Gravesend to London Bridge, it’s a great location for commuting to work, or enjoying a night out in London.”

The Marina and The Embankment are also perfectly located for international travel with City Airport just over an hours drive away, Ashford International Station just a 50 minute drive and the Channel Ports of Dover and Folkestone approximately 55 and 45 miles away respectively.

Currently available at The Marina are one- bedroom apartments priced from £158,250 and two-bedroom apartments from £200,250, whilst prices range from £148,000 for a one-bedroom apartment to around £176,000 for a two-bedroom apartment at The Embankment.

Both developments have fully furnished show-apartments available to view, and are open daily between 10am and 5pm. For further information visit Bellway.co.uk.
