Set on the second floor of a Victorian mansion block, this one-bedroom flat combines generous proportions with classic period features. The reception room’s bay window, high ceilings and fireplace create a bright, airy living space with direct views across Battersea Park. A private balcony off the bedroom adds outdoor space and street-facing outlooks.
Internally the layout works well for modern living: a well-maintained kitchen with breakfast bar, a double bedroom and a sizeable reception room within 804 sq ft of accommodation. The property benefits from mains gas central heating and fast broadband, and enjoys easy access to Battersea Park and local transport links including nearby mainline stations and bus routes north of the river.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. The flat is sold as a share of freehold with 82 years remaining on the lease — below the 90-year threshold where costs to extend rise significantly. Service charges average £3,306 per year and there is a small ground rent of £50. The building’s solid brick construction (pre-1900) means walls likely have no cavity insulation, so buyers should expect typical period maintenance and the potential to improve thermal performance.
This property suits a buyer seeking period character, park views and strong local amenities — either a city-based first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor targeting Battersea’s rental market. It offers immediate livability with scope for value-adding improvements (lease extension, insulation upgrades) if desired.
