Set across the sixth and seventh floors of a riverside development, this penthouse duplex delivers dramatic reception spaces and abundant natural light. The principal reception features five-metre-high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony framing Battersea Park and skyline views. An upper-level dining mezzanine, bar area and roof terrace extend entertaining possibilities.
Accommodation suits a growing family or professionals needing generous, flexible rooms. There are five bedrooms including a principal suite with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite, three further double bedrooms, a versatile fifth room for a study or guest bedroom, plus a utility room. Two allocated off-street parking spaces, concierge, lift access and secure riverside setting add everyday convenience.
Practical points are straightforward: the property is leasehold with a very long lease (968 years), constructed c.1996–2002, and heated by electric ceiling heating. Service charge and council tax are both high and should factor into running costs. The building’s external wall materials have been assessed as low fire risk; buyers should still seek independent professional advice if required.
This is a rare, large penthouse offering exceptional entertaining space and proximity to Battersea Park, the river and new transport links. It will particularly suit buyers prioritising scale, views and turnkey living, while those sensitive to high communal costs or electric-only heating should allow budget for ongoing charges.
