property information
The Courtyard Collection offers 153 apartments designed with a bold take on 21st century city-centre living. The new building comprises a selection of suites, one bedroom, two bedroom and three bedroom apartments, with starting prices from £635,000.
THE SKY POOL – A NEW ICON FOR MODERN LONDON
Residents receive Eg:le membership, giving them and guests access to the highly anticipated Sky Pool, a world-first transparent pool 35m in the sky that recently opened to Embassy Gardens residents on 22 May. Filled with 148,000 litres of water, the Sky Pool spans 15 metres between two residential apartment buildings and is constructed out of thick acrylic, taking inspiration from some of the world’s most impressive aquaria. Further cementing Embassy Gardens’ global reputation for its high-end amenities, the Eg:le membership’s additional curated menu of services includes access to a 24-hr concierge service, club lounge, two workspace suites, a private cinema, an indoor pool, spa, sauna/steam rooms and one of London’s best health and fitness club offerings.
DESIGNED WITH A VIBRANT CONTEMPORARY LIFESTYLE IN MIND
All apartments at The Courtyard Collection have been designed by internationally influential duo Benningen Lloyd to facilitate a luxury yet vibrant lifestyle; blending bold colours to complete the spirit of nearby New Covent Garden Flower Market and South Bank, maximise spacious living and uphold an ethos of craftsmanship at their core. With an Instagram-worthy backdrop of the Thames, every apartment comes with large scale windows that open onto the new mile-long Linear Park – a zigzagging ribbon of green inspired by the High Line in Manhattan.
NEIGHBOURHOOD VIBE
Home to the U.S. Embassy and Penguin Random House, Embassy Gardens’ established status as a leading lifestyle and commercial hub for London where people work, live and socialise is ever growing. It is already home to a diverse selection of thriving lifestyle brands, including top chef Robin Gill’s Darby’s restaurant, artisanal District cafe, beauty and lifestyle concept Linnaean, well known craft cocktail bar The Alchemist, Irish cocktail bar Homeboy and boutique cycle studio ‘static’. The shops, culture and nightlife of Pimlico and Chelsea are just across the river.
CITY-CENTRE LIVING
Walking distance from key transport hubs like Vauxhall station, The Courtyard Collection is well connected, with travel to the West End in 15 minutes when the new Nine Elms Station opens later this year. The nearby riverside walkways offers a scenic route along the Thames, and a new Uber by Thames Clippers service allows for an 11 minute journey to Embankment and a 38 minute journey to Canary Wharf by water.

Located 22 miles west of central London and 4 miles from historic Windsor, Slough is a centre for business and employment in the Thames Valley, rivalling London and other UK cities for investment potential. The town is currently undergoing a significant regeneration programme of which Horlicks Quarter is a key part. The town’s long-term strategy of renewal includes a £3.5 Billion investment in the redevelopment of the central district into a business, residential, cultural and leisure hub. More than 9,000 homes and 10,000 new jobs will be created. Located in the Thames Valley, the UK’s fastest growing economic sub-region, Slough is a major centre in the M4 Tech Corridor west of London. The technology sector will be a key driver of Slough’s long-term prosperity. Slough is well located for famous sporting events at Ascot, Windsor and Henley, Michelin star dining at Bray and parkland at Windsor, Cliveden and Virginia Water. Bicester Village is within an hour's drive. Eton offers charming quirky shops and timeless museums and the renowned Eton College which is approximately 2 miles away. Horlicks Quarter is just a 7-minute* walk to Slough station. Residents can travel to Windsor in 6 minutes*, Reading in 12 minutes* and London in 15 minutes* via train. Upon the arrival of Crossrail, the estimated journey to Bond Street and Canary Wharf will be shortened to 31 minutes* and 46 minutes* respectively. The proposed Western Rail Link planned for 2028 will cut the journey time to just 7 minutes from Slough to Heathrow.
