Located just off Battersea Square, this beautiful two-bedroom apartment, with private west facing garden and dedicated, secure off-street parking, is part of an exclusive, self-managed development.
The bright open-plan kitchen, dining and living area seamlessly flows to the garden, grounded by solid oak wooden floors that run throughout. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors frame views to the west facing patio garden and fill the space with light, creating a seamless extension of the indoor living spaces. In warmer months, the door can be left open so that it works as a second living area.
The kitchen, arranged in a U-shape, is a masterclass in planning, with integrated appliances, including fridge, slimline dishwasher, electric over and gas hob housed neatly in the neutral white cabinetry. A utility cupboard houses the freezer and washing machine.
The principal bedroom is bright and welcoming, with oak flooring, Boston blinds and a built-in wardrobe. The second bedroom makes a fantastic guest/child’s bedroom and a great home office. The bedrooms share a beautifully appointed showeroom, which continues the apartment’s calm neutral scheme.
Designed to fit in with the surrounding Victorian and mid-century properties, the development of six individual apartments and five town houses, was built in the late 1990s. The exclusive development, which is self-managed by a dynamic Residents Association, benefits from excellent security, including secure automatic gates to the off-street parking and doorway intercom. Vehicular access to the dedicated parking space is via the secure automatic gate, which has its own entry system. The flat has a secure rear access from the car park into the garden.
The apartment is located just off Battersea Square, on Battersea High Street, a residential no through road in one direction, with a one way system in place for part of the road. Battersea Square is a pretty tree-lined square, with cafes and restaurants and close to the Thames Towpath and cycle route, offering a pleasant route to Chelsea (approx. 0.8 mile), Battersea Park and beyond. Close by, the historic church of St. Mary’ Battersea, where in 1782 poet, painter, visionary and the author of the poem we now sing as Jerusalem, William Blake, was married. The view of the Thames from the garden at the front inspired JMW Turner in his drawing Battersea Church and Bridge, with Chelsea Bridge Beyond of c.1797. There are excellent bus services on Vicarage Crescent to Chelsea, Battersea and Wandsworth. Overland services are available at Clapham Junction, which can be reached in under 20-minute walk, providing access to the City and national services.
The next steps...
1
Establish funds
How will you fund the purchase?
Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.
Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.
They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.
However advantages of working with your bank are:
You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
