South west London estate agents can help make the potentially challenging issue of moving house to Battesea as stress-free as possible

A growing number of people are looking to either rent or buy a property in Battersea because of the promising potential of the neighbourhood which is quickly establishing itself as a centre for culture.

A combination of reasonable rental rates, culture and wide open green spaces is making Battersea a highly sought after area for a mixture of social groups that are looking to move south of the River Thames.

Battersea is already attracting a trendy crowd of up-and-coming professionals who are looking to take advantage of the burgeoning art scene and the area's future regeneration plans.

Families are also fond of area due to the benefits afforded by Battersea Park and the fact that being located in Wandsworth means that homes in the borough boast one of the cheapest council tax rates in the country.

There are also numerous excellent schools in the region so Battersea is indeed an ideal location to raise a family and parents can quickly commute into the centre of London for their jobs.

An extension of the Northern line on the London Underground has been proposed which would make Battersea even more accessible with a plan for two new stations to service the area.

The Northern line extension would split off from Kennington and head westward towards new stations at Nine Elms on Wandsworth Road before terminating at Battersea Power Station.

Both stations would be within London Underground Zone 2 and could be open as soon as 2015 if the appropriate planning permission is granted by the relevant authorities.

The proposed new United States Embassy in Nine Elms and development of the Battersea Power Station site is driving the improvement of transport to the area and creating new jobs.

Battersea Power Station is set to be transformed into a mixed-use residential and commercial site with fashionable restaurants, thousands of new homes a hotel and conference centre.

If the advantages of Battersea are appealing to you, you can expect to be able to choose from a variety of properties ranging from Victorian terraces to flats overlooking the Park and fashionable riverside apartments.
