1 room flat of 65m² in London

On the second floor of Koa House, within the Battersea Power Station estate, this one-bedroom apartment catches light from two sides and blends indoor and outdoor living into one fluid space. Full-height glazing opens onto a winter garden, part balcony, part snug, bringing the outside in whatever the weather. Inside, the layout is quietly precise. A pale, streamlined kitchen and reception area runs along the corner, with integrated appliances designed to recede into the architecture. The double bedroom is calm and well planned, with built-in wardrobes; a sleek shower room completes the plan. Koa House is one of the newest buildings in this fast-changing riverside quarter. Residents share landscaped gardens, a private lounge and bar, a cinema, a fully equipped gym and a striking swimming pool, all overseen by a 24-hour concierge. Cafés, restaurants and independent shops animate the streets below, while the River Thames, Chelsea and Battersea Park are a short walk away. With the new Northern Line extension on the doorstep, the West End and the City feel close at hand.
