Folk, the co-living brand on a mission to set a new standard for renting, is launching short stays at its third site in the capital, Florence Dock, in Battersea. The building, which has recently opened, is located riverside in SW11 just a ten-minute walk from both Clapham Junction and Wandsworth Town Stations. Stays will be bookable from one night to 89 nights, and will start from £90 per night.
Florence Dock features roof terraces with views of London, a huge co-working space, high-spec community kitchens, a gym, cinema room, gaming room, lounge, and on-site bar, of which all short-stay residents can now enjoy alongside longer term renters. The building is the third in Folk’s co-living portfolio in the capital and has been cleverly designed around the brand’s key pillars of community and connection, encouraging social interaction and the formation of new friendships and relationships.
Folk has conducted extensive research with renters and taken learnings from the brand’s first co-living spaces in Harrow and Earlsfield to design its Battersea building. Folk is continuing to disrupt the rental market by eradicating the traditional pain points tenants face such as run-down accommodation, lack of outdoor or working-from-home space and the rising cost of bills. Folk allows residents to have their own studio apartment, whilst getting access to all events and communal areas including gym, cinema, and co-working space, and covering all bills, removing the worry of rising costs which many are facing in the current climate. The short-stay availability will allow the public to experience co-living, including all the shared spaces and events programme, on a short-term basis with no contract.
Folk’s Florence Dock in Battersea is designed to impress: the building has 270 beautifully designed private studios and thoughtfully designed shared spaces for residents to come together and cook, enjoy social events, work-out and relax.
