Tucked away on a quiet residential street between Battersea and Clapham, this four-floor townhouse earns its keep both inside and out. Large sliding doors connect the ground-floor living and dining area directly to a private courtyard garden – a usable outdoor space rather than an afterthought. The freestanding bathtub on the first floor and marble en-suite bathroom add a considered layer of comfort, while the secluded top-floor bedroom, set above the rest of the house, offers a quieter retreat. Excellent transport links put central London well within reach whenever the city calls.
