Brewing luxury in the Gold Coast

Though the growth of an economy could be gleaned from the development in its real estate sector, the glamour, taste, lifestyle and even cultural inclination of its people are usually showcased in the kind of buildings—residential and/or commercial—they live and transact business in.

In most African countries, especially of the West including Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa etc, the level of sophistication that has permeated the social fabrics of their respective societies is easily seen in the luxury, comfort and convenience infused their rich architecture and home designs.

In all of this, Ghana, formerly known as Gold Coast, has a fair share and its real estate market has seen phenomenal development in recent years due to the country’s political and economic stability, continued discovery of oil and natural reserves, and influx of multinational companies which has seen some level of certainty across business and overall confidence in the market with huge growth forecast.

This is the premise on which Ambassador Heights, an ultimate luxury in residential real estate, is brewing as Accra’s premier downtown address offering phenomenal investment opportunities.

A new residential address personifying luxury and upscale lifestyle, Ambassador Heights is Accra’s  exclusive upcoming development nestled in the city’s most coveted location with a promise of world class design and build quality.

 With its  modern glass facades, manicured private gardens, and beautiful interiors complete with luxury finishes, fittings, and appliances, it will complement an unrivalled ownership experience.

It is designed to be an urban sanctuary within the city for a privileged few, offering immediate access to all of Accra – from the vibrant central business district to the sprawling seashore.  Merely minutes away from the Arts Centre, the National Museum, and directly opposite the National Theatre, there is no shortage of local culture and entertainment to cater to those with a discerning urban lifestyle.

Developed by the owner of the Moevenpick Ambassador Hotel and within the same compound, each home at the facility enjoys direct access to the services and amenities of the surrounding complex; private concierge, world class dining, shopping, fitness, swimming, meeting and event facilities.

All these come with the comfort of being in a secure environment supported by continuous 24-hour electricity and water supply.  Home owners here will enjoy an unparalleled lifestyle experience.

In a fascinating manner, this sanctuary connects the old history of Moevenpick Ambassador Hotel with Ghana’s growing real estate market. The hotel, occupying 16 acres of prime real estate in Accra, is steeped in rich history dating back to centuries.

Robert Davis, Ambassador Heights’ Sales Manager, says  each of the city homes is complete with a spacious living and dining area that flows seamlessly together—a large kitchen with exquisite finishes and luxury appliances; smartly designed bedrooms that take advantage of the views of the development among others.

“Ambassador Heights is attracting strong demand due to a number of key factors including the property’s beautiful history, incredible location, and globally recognised development partners. It is completely differentiated from any other real estate development in Accra and the region through its association with the 5-Star Moevenpick Ambassador Hotel”, Davis says.

According to the sales manager, “this lifestyle is inspiring purchase from end-users in addition to investment-focused buyers who realise that the unique factors in its location will lead to substantial rental demand and long term capital appreciation”.

By the last count, over 40 percent buyer-interest in this 21st century development is coming from Nigerian investors running shoulder to shoulder with Ghanaian investors who also represent 40 percent of the total demand, leaving only 20 percent for international clients.

By virtue of its location, Davis describes Ambassador Heights as a 5-Star mixed use development in which the hotel and the commercial space have been fully completed, assuring that buying into this development even as an investment makes much economic sense.

“Accra is the nerve centre of ‘New Ghana’ and all it stands for where the young middle class are witnessing a renaissance in attitude. There is an awakening to entrepreneurship and a consciousness towards art and luxury, where comfort is a major factor in every lifestyle choice”, he says.
