Oxen Den is an exquisite apartment that is filled with rich personality. From the artwork on display to the hand-crafted oak furniture, it nods to London’s marvellous cultural scene. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer uninterrupted views of Battersea, while also streaming natural light in to brighten the home. There are two homely bedrooms with deluxe double beds and en-suite bathrooms that have luxurious walk-in showers and soaking tubs. A sleek, contemporary kitchen has everything you’ll need to cook up hearty homegrown meals, while the rare London-terrace has an alfresco dining area and a comfortable lounge area. The home is tucked into the busy streets of Battersea. You’ll be within walking distance to local, independent restaurants, shops, and bars to enjoy, or rather take a 10-minute walk to Clapham Junction station to take the overground in to explore the city.
