Set directly opposite Battersea Park, this top-floor one-bedroom flat delivers rare park views from both reception and bedroom. The period red-brick mansion block combines character features — a feature fireplace, large sash-style windows and bespoke cabinetry — with contemporary fittings in the kitchen and bathroom.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (947 years) and share of freehold, secure bike storage and access to well-maintained communal gardens. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and nearby stations (Battersea Park, Queenstown Road and the new Battersea Power Station Northern Line) make central London commutes straightforward.
Notable costs and considerations are clear: the service charge at £4,452 p.a. is above average, and the building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited insulation, which can affect heating bills. The local area records higher crime levels than average — something to weigh for buyers prioritising security. The apartment’s footprint is around 581 sq ft, an average-sized one-bedroom that will suit a single professional or couple but offers limited expansion potential.
Overall, this flat will appeal to buyers seeking a characterful home with exceptional parkfront position and long-term tenure security. It also suits investors targeting strong rental demand near Battersea Park, provided they factor in running costs and any energy or security improvements required.
