Moving to Battersea

New-build riverside towers where the Power Station used to be — south bank, directly across from Chelsea.

South West London Northern line extension

What you'll actually be looking at

Riverside new-build

Towers and low-rise from the Power Station redevelopment, with concierge and amenities.

Victorian terraces

Older housing stock further south, similar in character to Clapham's.

Ex-council conversions

Good-value flats in well-located former council blocks, worth a look for space per pound.

Who it suits

Buyers wanting new-build convenience and a river address Young professionals priced out of Chelsea across the water Anyone wanting the Northern line extension commute

Getting around

  • Northern line at Battersea Power Station, London Overground at Battersea Park and Imperial Wharf, National Rail from Queenstown Road, plus buses 44, 137, 156, 344, and 452.
  • About 5 minutes to Victoria by rail, 8 to Waterloo via Queenstown Road.

The honest take

Why people move here

The river frontage and the Power Station's own shops, restaurants, and cinema — a genuinely new piece of London built from scratch.

What catches people out

New-build service charges here are real and rising — factor them in before comparing a per-square-foot price to an older building.

Where it sits on price

The Power Station developments price at a real premium; the older terrace stock further south sits closer to Clapham's level.
