A co-living brand called Folk is launching its third site in the capital, Florence Dock in Battersea. 

The building, which already has a waiting list of 2,000 people, is open for renters to move in from next month. 

It will feature multiple roof terraces, a co-working space, community kitchens, a gym, cinema room, gaming room, lounge and on-site bar. 

Folk’s existing premises are in Harrow and Earlsfield. The new building will have 270 units and be let for prices from £1,695 per calendar month for a studio.

Paul Naylor, Folk general manager, says: “The launch of Florence Dock in Battersea is an exciting next step in Folk’s journey as we continue to offer hassle-free co-living in London. 

“As our brand has grown rapidly over the past year, we’ve been able to hone our offering, take all the best bits of co-living and combine them with state-of-the-art design and innovative technology to launch Florence Dock. 

“We’ve balanced the indoor and outdoor spaces perfectly by working with architects and positioning the building riverside, and we are really excited for our first residents to sign up and move in.”
