Charlwood Street, London, SW1V

This beautiful, light-filled duplex flat offers an oasis of calm. While one enters on the ground floor, at the back of the building this then becomes the first floor. The main bedroom has a separate workspace, which has the potential to be an en-suite shower room if desired, and traditional sash windows looking out over a vista of gardens below. Next to it is a Japandi-style bathroom with a powerful rainwater shower, and there is an additional cloakroom on the floor below. The second double bedroom is also on the floor below, overlooking the patio.

A spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area opens out through wooden French windows onto the patio, which has a useful hidden area around the back of the building for storing pots and garden utensils. There is also a handy storage space above the landing, as well as built-in cupboards in the living room, second bedroom and under the stairs.

The kitchen is less than three years' old and has stunning quartz worktops, finished with a waterfall end and includes Neff’s slide and hide oven plus combi microwave oven, a wine cupboard, dishwasher, large fridge freezer with auto defrost, and hidden bin storage. The washer dryer is tucked away under the stairs, and there is a combi-boiler and traditional style column radiators; which are all also less than three years’ old. The electric sockets have USB ports and the living room lights are on dimmer switches. All the walls are painted in Carrara marble, breathable paint.

There is a real sense of privacy as the flat is at the back of the house where there is nothing to one side of it, and skylights in the living room just looking up at the sky.

The service charge is very low, covering only the flat’s share of the building insurance, which in 2025 was £550 for the year, with any work to the communal areas that might need doing discussed between the freeholder and the other three leaseholders. There are no works planned. The lease has 147 years and there is no ground rent.

Independent shops and cafes start from your doorstep, with Battersea Park and the high-end retail and restaurants of Battersea Power Station being just a short stroll away, on the other side of Chelsea Bridge. Trafalgar Square, St James Park, Soho, the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and Buckingham Palace are all within walking distance. Pimlico Underground Station and Victoria Station are in close proximity and the flat is also served by a fantastic bus service.
