The historic site in Battersea, formerly home to the Royal Candle Factory, has been transformed into a £140 million luxury residential development known as The HiLight. This 24-story tower offers 113 one-to-three-bedroom apartments, with prices starting from £625,000. The new tower, which now dominates the skyline, brings modern high-end living to this historic part of London.
The development boasts premium amenities, including a 16-seat cinema room, a fitness and wellness studio, a sky bar, 24-hour concierge service, a viewing platform, a rooftop garden with steam and sauna pods, and a club room.
The site, which has a rich history dating back to the 19th century, was originally used for candle production, supplying essential goods to royalty and the wider public. Now, it has been repurposed into an exclusive development featuring high-end apartments, blending heritage with modern architectural excellence.
The project aims to attract affluent buyers seeking stylish city living in a prime location.
This ambitious project is part of the wider regeneration of Battersea, which has seen significant investment in recent years, including the revitalisation of Battersea Power Station and improvements to local infrastructure. The new tower enhances the area's appeal, bringing further prestige to one of London’s most sought-after locations.
With strong demand for high-end properties in the capital, the luxury apartments are expected to generate significant interest from both domestic and international buyers. The development also contributes to the ongoing transformation of London’s riverside, offering residents a combination of history, elegance, and modern convenience.
As Battersea continues to evolve, the Royal Candle Factory site stands as a shining example of how historic locations can be re-imagined for contemporary urban living.
