What's it like to live in Battersea?

Battersea has been transformed by the Northern Line Extension, with two new stations opening at Battersea Power Station and Nine Elms. The Power Station development itself is a destination — Apple's UK headquarters, restaurants, shops, and luxury flats. Battersea Park is one of London's finest green spaces. The area north of the park (towards the river) commands premium rents, while streets south towards Clapham Junction offer better value. The new tube stations have made Battersea significantly more accessible, driving rental demand upward.
