Forward-thinking, contemporary and cosy, this quirky mews home in suburban Battersea has a lot going for it. The harmonious design blends neutral tones with an infectious Scandi feel, making the entire space feel stylish without sacrificing comfort or cosiness. On chilly evenings, curl up in front of the log burner with a steaming mug of tea and your favourite movie playing. Though it's not in the thick of it all, Battersea's quiet atmosphere and thriving cafe culture is a hotspot for families. Leafy Battersea Park is only a three-minute walk away – pack a picnic and spend sunny afternoons lounging on the grass, visiting the petting zoo and strolling along the Thames. When you're ready to venture further into the city, Vauxhall Station is only a short bus ride away and can get you to sights like Oxford Street and Buckingham Palace in less than thirty minutes.
