This recently refurbished two-bedroom apartment sits at the Battersea Park end of Queenstown Road, offering a rare 25 sqm private roof terrace and high ceilings throughout. The interior has been finished to a high specification with integrated Bluetooth speakers, Smeg kitchen appliances and contemporary fixtures, creating bright, spacious living areas ideal for everyday comfort or short-let income.
Practical benefits include low service charge relative to London standards, no ground rent, a long lease of 122 years and permit parking on-street. Transport links are excellent with Queenstown Road and Battersea Park stations nearby and the new Battersea Power Station Underground within walking distance, making central London commutes straightforward.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is electric via room heaters (likely higher running costs), the EPC rating is D, and recorded local crime levels are above average. Service charge is shown at £2,111 (average), and the property is leasehold. The building dates from the 1930–49 period and walls are assumed to be solid brick with no installed insulation, which may affect future energy upgrades.
Overall, the flat suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a turn-key apartment in a regenerated area with a standout private roof terrace and strong transport links. It is chain-free and ready to move into, but buyers who prioritise low running costs or a top EPC should factor in potential heating and insulation improvements.
