Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Making a statement with grand features and gilded details, you'll find this house stretching across four floors in South London. There's something here to satisfy every member of the group – a study for remote working, a games room with table tennis fit for kids, and a luxurious main suite with a roll-top bath. We're big fans of the courtyard garden, which is ideal for alfresco meals and sunset drinks. Location-wise, you're a short stroll from Battersea Park and the trendy Battersea Power Station. Clapham's vibrant high street is also minutes away, as are trains from Clapham Junction that can whisk you across London.
