Abercrombie Street, Battersea

Description

Nestled ‘south of the river’ in Battersea is this delightful three-bedroomed London home. Welcoming up to six guests, it’s your opportunity to spend some time in a charming area of London, with the iconic Battersea Power Station just a short distance away, and the lush greenery of Battersea Park on your doorstep.

Battersea’s iconic Power Station used to be one of the driving forces of Victorian London. Today, it’s been completely reimagined and is filled with gourmet dining experiences, galleries and boutique shops, as well as a year-round calendar of events and leisure venues. Take the Chimney Lift to the top of the northwest chimney for incredible panoramic views of London’s ever-changing skyline. Come back down to earth and head across the river to trendy King’s Road, or take the short walk to Clapham Junction overground and underground stations to access the West End and central London in just a few minutes.

From the warm and welcoming sitting room to the sunny garden, Abercrombie Street is a home that provides both indoor and outdoor spaces for guests to enjoy. The sitting room is lined with books and features an attractive blend of retro and modern motifs that work well together. The entrance level is also where you’ll find the beautifully laid-out and well-appointed kitchen. On the second level, you’ll stumble across a quiet office where you can catch up with those emails, as well as two of the home’s attractive bedrooms. The main suite has a large king-size bed, while the guest bedroom has a snuggly double bed. On the upper level is the third king-size bedroom that’s lit by Velux windows and has an ensuite bathroom.

The outside spaces are bright and colourful, with a sense of serenity and tranquillity. This is a very private space where you can unwind in peace at the end of a day with a glass of wine on the balcony or a zen-like hour to yourself in the Italian-style garden. Abercrombie Street is a comfortable, relaxed family home, filled with personal touches and blending some of the building’s original features with more contemporary furnishings. The result is pleasingly eclectic, thoroughly modern, and charmingly cosy: a real home-from-home.
