Central London’s Battersea Power Station has announced its participation at Cityscape Saudi Arabia, the Kingdom’s premier real estate event taking place in September under the theme The Future of Living.
Positioned along a 450-metre frontage of the River Thames, the riverfront development includes access to greenery and water in a prime central location, alongside significant retail and leisure opportunities. It comes after the Grade II listed Power Station estate was recently transformed to include over 100 shops, restaurants, offices and cultural venues as well as a unique residential offering.
“Battersea Power Station is one of the most ambitious and exciting developments currently on the market, creating a new neighbourhood in Central London positioned around one of the UK’s most revered landmarks,” says Meriam Makiya, Head of Residential at Battersea Power Station Development Company.
Designed by Foster + Partners, the Battersea Roof Gardens are a premium residential offering featuring 436 homes and one of London’s largest residential rooftop gardens. Many apartments also offer private outdoor space and innovative winter gardens that can be used all year round. Public green space includes the six-acre Power Station Park.
“As well as the creation of thousands of new homes by world-leading architects, we have created a self-sustaining 15-minute city, where residents can live, work, shop, play, dine and relax, moments from their front door. This mix of uses has drawn considerable interest from the Middle East, as purchasers seek a diverse neighbourhood with a rich offering,” says Makiya.
International brands such as Rolex, Ralph Lauren and Chanel Beauty sit alongside popular high-street stores such as ZARA, giving residents fast access to an enviable mix of 100-plus British and international brands. Food enthusiasts can indulge in a culinary journey with establishments including Gordon Ramsay’s Bread Street Kitchen and Bar and Ladurée, among others.
Representatives from Battersea Power Station will participate in a panel discussion at Cityscape Saudi Arabia, titled ‘How Mixed-Use Developments Are Meeting the Needs of Modern Consumers’ on Sunday, September 10.
