We love meeting the people behind HomeViews reviews. We recently caught up with Michael, an apartment owner at Ballymore’s Pan Peninsula in London’s Canary Wharf, to find out more about his experience as a resident.
Resident profile
Michael is a 24-year-old actor from Sweden, who purchased his two-bedroom flat at Pan Peninsula back in January 2018. He previously lived in Marner Point with his sister, close to where they were studying at the time. He paid £675,000 for his property at Pan Peninsula.
The selection process
Michael often works from home, and wanted a development with a good selection of facilities and a location with lots going on. He narrowed his search down to Canary Wharf:
“Coming from Sweden, I was unfamiliar with the property purchasing process and our solicitor and the agents were very helpful. However, we did view a lot of properties as we wanted to get a feel for them and see what the facilities were really like”.
“I use review websites when researching lots of things I would buy and would have really valued having HomeViews to support me. I was happy to share my review and help others who can now read independent and varied perspectives from residents before making one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.”
Michael, Pan Peninsula resident
Michael loves the security, the concierge service, and the amenities at Pan Peninsula, and couldn’t be happier with his decision. In his HomeViews review, he said: “I have been nothing but happy with the flat, facilities and services provided! Great gym with helpful staff. Amazing pool area. Very helpful concierge and a general 5 star hotel feeling! Strongly recommended to anyone looking to buy or rent a flat in London.”
Michael’s thoughts appear to chime with those of the majority of Pan Peninsula residents. More than half (55%) of reviewers rate the development 5 out of 5, or ‘excellent’. Other reviewers praise the first-class facilities, stylish design and attentive management team as reasons to love Pan Peninsula.
Development profile
Pan Peninsula is a Ballymore development next to Millwall Inner Dock, and features superb views of the River Thames. Residents of its luxury apartments and penthouses benefit from top-of-the-range leisure facilities, a cinema and an on-site Italian restaurant.
