This bright two-bedroom apartment sits in Archer House on Vicarage Crescent, directly overlooking the Thames and a short walk from Battersea Square. The flat benefits from long leasehold security (share of freehold, 955 years remaining), lift access, an on-site porter and owned off-street parking — rare practical conveniences for a central riverside address.
Internally the apartment is well presented with stylish, neutral finishes and good natural light. Its 724 sq ft layout suits first-time buyers or buyers downsizing who want a manageable home with strong rental appeal; the single bathroom and average overall size favour those prioritising location and outlook over generous internal space.
Costs and risks are clear: the annual service charge of £6,986 is above average and will affect ongoing affordability. The property sits riverside, so buyers should budget for any specific riverside insurance premiums despite a very low flooding risk. Crime in the immediate area is above average, so buyers should factor local security and lifestyle considerations into their decision.
Overall this apartment offers a rare combination of riverside views, practical on-site amenities (parking, porter, lift) and long lease security. It will suit buyers seeking a low‑maintenance central London base with strong amenity access, but those after larger living space or minimal communal charges may prefer alternative options.
