A handsome Battersea townhouse seconds from Battersea Park, with the kind of private garden that's rare in London – a fenced retreat with a lower dining terrace and an upper lawn, framed by greenery you can also see from the kitchen below. Inside, two separate living rooms give you real breathing room, while original artwork and high-ceilinged hallways speak to traditional London character. A dedicated home office adds practical appeal, particularly for longer stays. Battersea Power Station's restored Art Deco silhouette is a twenty-two-minute drive away.

Local guide
About Nine Elms
A fast-transforming locality on the banks of the Thames, larger in area than Monaco, Nine Elms is set to become one of London’s most vibrant districts. Much has changed since its humble farmland and locomotive works beginnings; in their place now stand gleaming mirrored skyscrapers and upscale private residences that dominate the horizon. One of which boasts the world’s first floating sky pool, a leg-trembling 115 feet above the ground....
