Property details

A substantial and beautifully finished six double bedroom Victorian terraced house, arranged over four floors and boasting a charming, South-facing private garden. This fantastic property is perfectly positioned moments from Clapham High Street and Clapham North station, with central Brixton within easy reach in the other direction, appealing to purchasers looking in both of these sought-after locations.

Natural light, high ceilings and bright airy spaces are a running theme throughout this beautiful family home. The current owners applied meticulous attention to detail when the property was renovated six years ago. An impressive dual-aspect reception sits at the front of the home, boasting high ceilings, two feature fireplaces and a large bay window that floods the room with natural light, perfect for entertaining. Bespoke shelving adds a stylish feel to the room and there is direct access to a courtyard area which allows fresh air to breeze through the room and feeds through to the kitchen. Nestled at the back of the building is a spacious eat-in kitchen diner with concertina doors that allow a seamless transition from the living space into the low-maintenance, South-facing rear garden, complete with significant outside storage space. The kitchen is contemporary with space for a large dining table as well as a breakfast bar for a more casual dining option. With access to private outside space being more important than ever, this larger-than-average landscaped garden is a real selling point. A tiled area with in-built seating and raised flower beds leads through to a decking area with a fantastic outside studio that has electrics and water connected.

The further three floors of the house host six genuine double bedrooms, which is hard to come by in such a central location. Each room is appealing in its own right and three attractive modern bathrooms complete the property. The bedroom sizes could be easily increased at the front of the building, on the first and second floors, by removing the non-structural stud walls.

This well-presented home has undergone extensive refurbishment by the current owners, including a rear and loft extension, new wiring and plumbing throughout, full repairs on all windows and chimneys, underfloor heating and a fully remodelled garden. With this much space on offer, it is easy to repurpose spaces to suit the needs of the purchaser and the property has been finished in neutral tones with stylish fixtures throughout.

Within a five-minute stroll down the road, you will reach the vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street offering cracking nightlife and culinary delights. The cafes and boutique stores in Clapham Old Town and Abbeville Village are within reach and the green open spaces of Clapham Common are easily accessible for the new purchaser.

In the other direction, you will have everything that Brixton has to offer, from music venues and the extremely popular Brixton Village, to large brand shops and the incredibly popular Brockwell Park with its iconic lido. Potential purchasers will benefit from fantastic transport links which include access to the Northern Line (Clapham North and Clapham Common tube stations), the Victoria Line (Brixton tube station), the overground service at Clapham High Street Station and Brixton Station, plus multiple buses running into central London. The bars, restaurants and supermarkets on Acre Lane are also a short stroll away. The property will sell quickly and early registration of interest is highly recommended.

Freehold and chain-free.

Clapham area highlights

There’s something for everyone in Clapham and it draws an eclectic crowd. Clapham Common buzzes with activity and there’s a diverse mix of restaurants, shops, independent boutiques and nightlife, along with some wonderful architecture. The local schools are excellent and the transport options plentiful, with three London Underground (Northern Line) stations in close proximity and frequent London Overground trains from Clapham High Street station. It rarely feels overcrowded here, despite the abundance of things to do, and Clapham endures as one of the most desirable places to live in south London.
