Battersea is one of London’s best areas to invest in property or live in as a family. A great example of what Battersea has to offer as a residential area is shown by this Victorian townhouse for sale with Douglas & Gordon.

Located on Eland Road, just around the corner from Clapham Junction, the house is split over four floors and has a large garden (almost 50ft). Downstairs, there’s ample living space made up of a double reception room with lovely period character and an eclectic design that is echoed throughout the family house. There’s also a kitchen/dining room, which opens out on to a conservatory and then onto the garden. The kitchen in this Clapham Junction house for sale is fitted with high-end appliances, including an Aga, and has plenty of storage, plus room for a dining table. Upstairs, three double bedrooms are on the first floor along with the family bathroom, while the en-suite master bedroom is on the top floor and has two Juliette balconies.

Eland Road runs north of Lavender Hill towards Battersea Park, close to all the shops and wine bars of Lavender Hill and the green spaces of Battersea Park and Clapham Common. A number of excellent schools are also within walking distance.
