Character radiates from every corner of this home. Slate fireplaces, pine shutters, vintage furniture, and floor-to-ceiling bookshelves create the warmth and personality of a well-loved family home – the perfect antidote to sleek modern apartments.
The large kitchen evokes a countryside feel with its stone floor, range cooker, and wine fridge, opening out onto a small patio for morning coffee or evening drinks. When the weather's kind, head up to the first-floor roof terrace, complete with barbecue, wooden dining table, and chairs – ideal for al fresco dining with a view.
Sleeping up to five guests, the master bedroom occupies the first floor and features French antique furnishings and an en suite bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath and original Victorian fittings. Please note the shower in this bathroom is ornamental and not in use. Upstairs, a further double and single bedroom share a large shower room – all decorated with vintage beds, traditional accents, and an eye for cosy, lived-in charm.
This is a true London home – warm, welcoming, and full of stories – ideal for families or friends who prefer timeless character over contemporary minimalism.
Your Neighbourhood
Tennyson Street sits within the Diamond Conservation area, just moments from Battersea Park's beautiful open spaces and riverside walks. Queenstown Road offers cafés, shops, and supermarkets for daily essentials, while Lavender Hill and Chelsea's King's Road are both close by for shopping and dining.
Transport connections work brilliantly. Queenstown Road and Battersea Park stations are within easy reach, with trains to Victoria and Waterloo. Wandsworth Road (Overground) is nearby, and the 137 bus runs directly over Chelsea Bridge to Sloane Square, Knightsbridge, and Oxford Street – bringing the best of central London within comfortable reach.
We Love
That roof terrace is a real gem – perfect for warm evenings with friends over a barbecue. The vintage charm throughout feels genuine rather than styled, giving this home a warmth you simply can't replicate in modern builds. And being a short walk from Battersea Park? Those riverside paths and open spaces are ideal for morning runs or lazy Sunday strolls.
