Description:

VIVO’s private courtyards are at the heart of each block. They’re there for all residents to enjoy and their layouts relate to the surrounding architecture so that they can be seen as one, unified space.

Together, the lush landscaped courtyards and gardens create a variety of smaller spaces. Ideal for relaxing, imaginative play, socialising, building a community. It’s up to you. The courtyard’s facades are clad in a smooth pale cream brick that acts as a neutral backdrop to the colour and excitement of the gardens. They also reflect and maximise the amount of daylight and sunlight that floods through the gaps between the buildings.

With quick and convenient access to Canary Wharf, The City, Shoreditch and Stratford, the new VIVO apartments are at the center of everything – making getting to work and socialising easy.

Whether you’re looking for a home or a smart investment, VIVO could be right up your street. Contemporary 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, in three unique blocks, are now available in what’s considered to be London’s newest, accessible and most desirable place to buy.

VIVO is brought to you through a partnership between First Base and East Thames, combining the expertise of two leading London developers.

The two partners share a vision to deliver an outstanding development setting a new benchmark for the area that will stand the test of time. The homes will be built to the highest standards, have good levels of sustainability and be easy to maintain and live in.

First Base is an acclaimed London developer which specialises in the delivery of beautifully designed award winning developments. Recent First Base developments include Highbury Gardens in Islington, Printworks in Elephant & Castle and Adelaide Wharf in Shoreditch.

East Thames has been providing quality housing in East London for over 30 years, delivering award winning developments. East Thames is committed to building more than 2,000 new homes in the area over the next 5 years.

Recently First Base and East Thames joined forces with Southern Housing to form a consortium called Triathlon Homes which has bought 1,379 homes at East Village, the new neighbourhood being created from the 2012 Athletes Village.
