The iconic Grade II* listed Battersea Power Station – an edifice that has dominated the local skyline for more than 80 years – has opened to the public after a multi-million pound facelift. It is the final part of an ambitious regeneration project that has revitalised this corner of Battersea beyond belief.
The industrial landmark is now a world-class retail and leisure destination, breathing new life into a prime riverside location. Aspire’s Battersea branch has watched SW11’s desirability soar and now there are even more reasons to move to the area.
Shopping: designer names, High Street favourites and unique boutiques deliver an exceptional retail experience, set inside the two refurbished turbine halls and along the new Electric Boulevard. Find brands including Ralph Lauren and Rolex cheek-by-jowl with Mango and a soon-to-open Marks & Spencer Food Hall.
Dining & Drinks: Battersea Power Station’s choice of place to eat and drink has increased exponentially. There’s a refined café culture thanks to Black Sheep Coffee; favourites including Leon and Gordon Ramsey Street Pizza; tapas, seafood, pancake, roti, vegan and poke bowl specialists, on-site breweries; a Searcys Rolls-Royce champagne bar, and cocktails with crazy golf from Birdies, to name a few.
See & Do: Battersea Power Station now offers a fully interactive, immersive experience. Lift 109 opens from 15th November – an epic glass elevator that ascends the north-west chimney to a panoramic viewing platform. The venue is also crammed full of gyms, a virtual reality experience, a theatre and a boutique cinema, with a business centre, vast food hall and luxury health club opening soon.
Battersea Power Station’s true mixed-use nature allows people to live at the very heart of this dynamic new enclave. Aspire is selling a number of luxury apartments on an off-plan basis at the Foster + Partners-designed Battersea Roof Gardens development. Residents will have access to the new Art'otel facilities, will be able to swim in a rooftop infinity pool, and will have breath-taking views of the iconic Power Station landmark.
Our Battersea team provides a wealth of information about the local area, so please get in touch if you have a SW11 property to sell or rent out, if you’d like to move to the locale, or if you are interested in reserving an apartment at Battersea Roof Gardens.
