One of the most iconic landmarks on the southwest London skyline is without a doubt Battersea Power Station. But rather than simply visiting this striking structure, how about living inside it? A truly unique experience, just six minutes from the brand-new tube station of the same name, this duplex apartment offers luxury living in a coal-fired power station from the 1920s. Inside the home, you have incredible views of its world-famous chimneys from your two private balconies (one of which leads to a rooftop garden for residents). But it’s not just about the exterior. We love the decor in the apartment, such as the living space with its mid-century furnishings and rich wooden parquet floors. In this open-plan area, you’ll also find a stylish, charcoal-coloured kitchen with white tiles – make your espresso at the counter before reclining on the plush, L-shaped sofa. Another excellent spot for relaxation is the bathroom. With a copper, roll-top bathtub, there’s a vintage vibe that resonates with the historical building in which you’re located. Don't forget to take a wander around this sublime setting to find deluxe extras like the residents’ gym and indoor pool.

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....
