Juniper Drive, London, SW18
£3,000 pcm (Tenant Fees)

This modern two bedroom, two bathroom apartment benefits from having a lovely wrap around terrace with views across the communal gardens to the river Thames. Both bedrooms are a good size, with the master benefiting from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite. There is a useful utility cupboard in the hallway housing the washer/dryer plus storage space.

Battersea Reach is widely regarded as one of the best managed riverside developments in the area. Residents benefit from a 24 hour concierge, a well equipped residents’ gym and secure underground parking, alongside landscaped communal gardens and direct access to the Thames Path which runs along the river. Many residents choose to stay here for years which says a lot about the way the development is run and the community that has formed. The riverside walk connects easily along the Thames towards both Chelsea and Putney and is particularly popular with residents in the early morning and evening. From nearby Plantation Wharf Pier the Thames Clippers river boat provides a relaxed and often surprisingly quick route into central London, stopping at Battersea Power Station, Chelsea Harbour, Blackfriars and Canary Wharf.


The development also works well from a practical point of view with useful amenities on site including a Tesco Express, cafés, a Young’s waterfront pub and restaurant, a nursery and a small selection of local services, giving the development a convenient and village like feel. Clapham Junction and Wandsworth Town stations are both within easy reach, providing fast connections into central London, while bus routes run regularly through the surrounding area. Wandsworth Town has developed a strong neighbourhood feel in recent years with a growing selection of independent cafés, restaurants and local shops. Southside Shopping Centre provides further convenience with a cinema and a wide range of retailers, while just across the river the King’s Road offers an established mix of boutique shopping and dining. For those looking for a well run riverside development with strong transport connections and a genuine neighbourhood feel, Battersea Reach continues to be a very popular choice.
