Set across the first and second floors of a handsome Victorian conversion in Battersea, this two-bedroom flat blends period character with contemporary fittings. The bright reception room features original sash windows, bespoke built-in shelving and room for living and dining. Two double bedrooms upstairs include floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes, offering practical storage for a growing household or sharers.
The separate kitchen and bathroom are modern and well-maintained, ready for immediate occupation. The property benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating, a share of freehold and a long lease (approximately 105 years), all of which reduce future ownership uncertainty. Service charges are modest for the area.
Stanley Grove is a quiet, tree-lined street positioned between Clapham and Battersea, with excellent access to green space—Clapham Common and Battersea Park—plus plentiful shops, cafés and transport links (Queenstown Road, Battersea Park overground; Battersea Power Station underground within easy reach). Broadband and mobile signal are strong, which will suit home-working professionals.
Known for its period façade and internal character, the flat is an attractive option for first-time buyers seeking central green spaces and commuter convenience. Buyers should note the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated as built; further insulation or energy upgrades would improve comfort and running costs. The local area records above-average crime levels, so prospective purchasers should review local safety reports and consider security measures.
