This compact two-bedroom first-floor flat sits in a Victorian terrace just moments from Battersea Park and Battersea Power Station. The layout includes a spacious double bedroom, a smaller second room or study, separate reception, modern integrated kitchen and a sleek bathroom — all arranged across 556 sq ft. The private roof terrace is a rare outside space for flats at this size and adds practical lifestyle value.
Practical running costs are straightforward: mains gas boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Tenure is a share of freehold and the service charge is £750 per year (below average), which will suit buyers seeking low ongoing fees. Flooding risk is very low and the area benefits from plentiful transport, shops and leisure amenities nearby.
Buyers should note the property is compact and best suited to a first-time buyer, couple or small household rather than a family needing large rooms. The building retains solid brick walls with no known insulation and secondary glazing only; further thermal improvements may be desirable and could be needed to reduce heating costs. Crime in the immediate area is above average — sensible security measures are recommended.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful flat with a private terrace and good connectivity. It offers immediate move-in condition for buyers prioritising location and outdoor space, while also presenting modest scope for energy upgrades or cosmetic refurbishment to add value.
