If you’ve ever wanted to dance among the rooftops of London – Dick Van Dyke style – this is the place. This two-floor apartment commands views over surrounding Battersea, an area close to the action but relaxed enough to make you feel right at home. Inside the apartment, you’ll find a light, bright living room filled with quirky artworks, and a kitchen with a fridge, oven, and stove. Cook up your favourite dishes, then head outside to one of the two rooftop terraces, where you can sip a sundowner in the fresh air. And, at the end of a busy day, climb the stairs to the king-sized bed fitted with crisp white linens – a good night's sleep is guaranteed. Battersea Park is just at the end of the road, where there are floodlit tennis courts, a boating lake, and lovely gardens. In the other direction, Battersea Power Station is now a collection of hip restaurants and shops to explore – you can wander there in twenty minutes. And, if you want to head into central London, then you can use public transport to arrive there in less than half an hour.
