Mmmm… Unfortunately not a job well done. However, as we Brits couldn’t manage to do a development in the last 40 years, so we can’t really complain!! But let’s call a spade a spade; this is just another faceless international development, completely disrespecting the integrity of the building and it’s unique significance to Londoners. Faceless modern apartments crammed into the site, whilst the building itself, humiliated by having its guts torn out and replaced with endless corporate company shopping that can be found anywhere in the world. Inside you could be anywhere; from Singapore to New York. London is lost…..😔.
@@theandroidsThe UK is struggling, many brands from this country have been sold off internationally. Look at Rolls Royce (BMW), Bentley might still be British owned? Jaguar, Land Rover (Chinese?). Manchester City and Arsenal (Emirates) Middle East.
@@badgastein2 The new chimneys have been constructed precisely according to the original specifications, encompassing both height and radius. The initial reconstruction focused on the south-west chimney, which was limited to a height of either 25m or 27m (my recollection is hazy on the exact figure). To ensure accuracy, laser levels were employed from the ground before proceeding with further construction, enabling constant monitoring to confirm adherence to the specified tolerances. The decision to adhere to the original height specifications during the chimney rebuild was primarily motivated by the desire to maintain the existing skyline for residents in high-rise buildings. By reconstructing the chimneys to their previous heights, the intention was to ensure that the changes would not significantly alter the skyline as seen by those living in nearby high-rise blocks. This consideration aimed to preserve the familiar visual environment for the affected residents.
WOW, I'm absolutely gobsmacked...I saw the abandoned power station in 2003, and feared it might be demolished - it's on my bucket list when I return to London from Melbourne, Australia...
I played a small part delivering glass for over a year from the northwest down to battersea, its amazing to see the finished article now after over 20 years.
I must say that when I saw this I was so exited. But I have to say that they have not used enough of the old styling in the apartments. It was just any contemporary design with just a little dab of original. I would have liked to see more brick and steelwork.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. As the building is listed they had to be very careful during building. Many of the external walls in the apartments are brick as well as the corridors and lobby.
Hello London from Malaysia..I've been London twice 2016/2018 and I really² love it..I ever saw this abandoned power station but never expect that Malaysia will buy n develope it become a stunning place like now..🤗🤩
It’s extraordinary how much detail went into the original when you compare it to later power stations like Drax or Didcot. No wonder it had to be saved. I do like the end result. Now, if only there was a pink 🐖 flying from one of the chimneys the redevelopment would truly be complete!
i was based in chelsea barracks for 2 years in the mid 70s . this place has undergone unbelievable change . for the better . the fairground in the park was amazing then . the difference between chelsea and battersea was incredible , the alfred bridge was a partition between rich and poor . now so different . so many places in the south bank have had major investment . including stockwell and brixton .
80s baby here who grew up in the 90s in Battersea. I went to a primary school called John Milton (no longer there) on Thessaly Road which was opposite to the power station. You don't realise how big it is until you're up close to it.
This is such a brilliant refurb, made even better by the fantastic review, the camera work, production & host are top notch. I always find it funny comparing these type of apartments to those in New York, because there are no apartments in New York this spec anywhere near this price range.
Great video and stunning area. I was at the Power Station yesterday and whilst it's no where near there yet...you can see the attraction. Great host too!
Love the apartment! The tile pattern on the kitchen backsplash is called a stacked bond. The bathroom seems a bit cheap, they should of gone for a black matt finish on the shower, taps etc.
Thank you very good tour best I've seen liked everything about it the only thing I didn't like which I thought was a bit naff is those gold taps and fittings i would really get fed up with those after a short time in fact I would have them changed immediately if I moved in but the rest of it is absolutely fabulous
I'm from Malaysia.. watching this amazing video makes me want to move to Battersea Power Station...please provide me the link to all details about the property there
What an amazing presentation! I’ve noticed that you never mention parking in your videos. I think a lot of viewers would like to know if they can buy or rent secure parking for cars and motorcycles. Other than that, kudos for another informative and entertaining high quality video!
Have to be impressed buy the scale of this project. Beautiful finishes as well. Although @11:17 cuttin in under that light switch could have been better for 1.6 million.
1,600 GBP ~ per foot of floor space! Batter Sea Station well done architectural marvel! I was there in august, walked al over and had coffee at the shop took the uber boat to Canary Wharf!
Wonderful video, I love it when they have the price in there. For the apartment that’s £1.6 million, what is the typical monthly HOA or condo fee or whatever they call it over there. Thank you
Is this a replica? The last time I went to London and passed it on a train several years ago it was covered in scaffolding and at least two of the chimneys were gone. I thought they were demolishing it for new flats and to add value to the surrounding flats which overlooked it.
Due to microscopic fisher cracks the chimneys were unstable and so had to be reconstructed for safety measures. However, the majority of the original building has been restored and reused.
Thanks for commenting! The Power Station is sat on a 42 acre site, 19 acres of which are green space and as it is along the river front, currently only half (the back and one side) have buildings next to it. For a zone 1, Central London home, we think this is pretty good!
The tube station is welcome but essentially it connects you to Waterloo and to the City and not to Chelsea and the West End, or indeed anywhere over the river or west at all.
Battersea Power Station is on the Northern line which connects you to Charing Cross, Leicester Square, Euston, Camden, Hampstead and more. The power station itself is just a 24 minute walk to Sloan Square, in Chelsea, or a 20 minute bus ride and to get to the West End, you can get off at Leicester Square and it's a 2 minute walk from there. The Northern line runs from south of the river and all the way to north London, so your connections to the rest of London are very good!
Wow! As a Malaysian, I am really proud. It's really elegant and beautiful with utmost respect to the heritage of Battersea . Job well done!
It is spectacular!

@@g.p616 A lot of developments in London are foreign or have a huge foreign investment.

Liverpool football club (US owned). Chelsea was Russian owned until recently. Manchester United (US owned). I’m sure there are many more.
why I'm crying seeing this... Proudly Malaysian
I've just bought one of the 2 bedroom apartments im over the moon. It was worth the wait❤
Amazing!
Congrats!
Congrats
Are the apartments actually inside the power station or the building next to it? Congrats on your purchase !
PROUD MALAYSIAN 🇲🇾❤️🇬🇧
It's lovely that a building that once warmed homes is now being warmed by homes ❤️
So lovely!
I love the fact that they kept the chimneys. Gives it a very unique and original look.
We agree!
The chimneys were demolished for safety reasons and new ones have been built to replace them, they are not as high as the originals.
A lot of Pink Floyd fans would be really mad if they would have gotten rid of the chimneys.
Not original… rebuilt, because the developer didn’t want to pay for the maintenance costs of the original chimneys.

It's a bit Malaysian style of residency currently in the market. The duplex style with lot of natural lighting. Love it.
Can we give the lovely agent a thumbs up , for an excellent and detailed presentation 👍🏽
Thanks for watching!
Indeed!

Yay, it's a great destination!
Love the fact they've stayed true to the heritage of the station in the interior design. Impressive development all round 👏
Very impressive!

I love that they've breathed new life into such an iconic building.
Those prices though! Ouch! 😳

Thank you so much!
Wow!!! This is stunning. My family also lived close by this building. Uber boat, tube stop. Can't wait to visit the UK, again to stop by.
Amazing!

Nice review, but not enough natural light for me.
Thank you for the compliment. We have plenty of properties with natural lighting check them out www.chbl.uk/en/ 😁
I am not sure the actual power station is attractive but the facilities are astonishing. The neighbouring hundred acre park is fantastic.
Glad you like the facilities!
