Set across two levels of a converted Victorian school, this generous two-bedroom apartment balances period character with contemporary living. High ceilings, large windows and an eye-catching spiral staircase create an expansive, light-filled reception room that flows directly onto a private roof terrace — an excellent spot for entertaining and summer dining. The second floor houses two double bedrooms, one featuring a mezzanine ideal for a home office, plus two modern bathrooms on separate levels for convenience.
Practical benefits include a demised off-street parking space with an electric-charging port and a very long lease (974 years) under a share-of-freehold arrangement. At 1,368 sq ft the apartment is unusually large for the area and will suit buyers seeking significant living and entertaining space close to Battersea amenities and Queenstown Road station.
Buyers should note the service charge is relatively high at £7,000 per year and council tax is described as quite expensive. The development sits in an area with above-average crime figures, so prospective purchasers should consider security and insurance implications. The building was constructed between 1996–2002 and has double glazing, but exact installation dates are unknown, and routine maintenance or updates may be required over time.
Overall this is a distinctive, characterful home with strong entertaining credentials and practical parking/EV charging, best suited to buyers who prioritise space, style and location and who are comfortable with the running costs of a gated development.
