Polished Scandi-inspired interiors? Check. Indoor-outdoor living? Yup. This is modern London living at its very best, with a central location to boot. Nestled in Battersea and just a stone’s throw from Chelsea and the river, it’s hard to imagine a better setting for this stylish home. Do like the locals and wander the gorgeous riverside stretch of the mighty Battersea Park between the bridges of Albert (nine minutes on foot) and Chelsea (twenty minutes on foot). And when thoughts turn to food, hop over the bridge to well-heeled Chelsea, where you’ll find bustling cafes and Michelin-starred restaurants aplenty. Or jump on the train at Battersea Park Station (twenty minutes on foot) and uncover other gems of this diverse city. Back at home, this place feels like your very own sanctuary in the city. Two floors are united by considered design, with fresh whites set against rustic textiles and statement lighting to ramp up the wow factor. Climb the staircase to discover luxurious bedrooms with crisp, white linens and sparkling bathrooms of the highest quality. But it’s back downstairs in the sociable living and dining space where we think you’ll be spending most of your time. Open up the Crittal patio doors to reveal your very own garden – a rare treat indeed for a London pad this central.

Local guide
About Chelsea
In the 1960s, Chelsea's Kings Road was the stomping ground for the hippest young things in town. Nowadays, the area is more conservative in its reputation - you'll share the immaculate pavements with affluent business people from around the world and plenty of blow-dried ladies of leisure. It attracts this set for good reason - it's very central and the period houses that line the streets are charming. Sloane Square...
