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.

At over 1,000 square feet with an impressively spacious kitchen and separate reception, this characterful conversion ticks boxes for many purchasers. The reception room is a magnificent space with high ceilings and a particularly wide bay window. An exposed brick chimney breast and feature fireplace add to the appealing ambience within the room, ideal for hosting and entertaining or relaxing and unwinding peacefully in a comfortable setting. The hallways that wind through the property are bright and open, adding to the sense of space throughout. At the other end of the apartment, an impressive eat-in kitchen is complete with significant storage, integrated appliances and abundant surface space. Plenty of room to dine whilst also having the option of a second lounge area, perfect when a less formal setting is desired. The kitchen diner could be configured as an open plan living space, with the separate reception acting as the principal bedroom for any purchasers who require three bedrooms.
The current principal bedroom is cosy and peaceful, tucked away at the rear looking into the gardens below with two large sash windows and plenty of built-in storage. Adjacent, the second double bedroom could be rented out, used as a guest room, home office, dressing room, nursery or anything else the purchaser may require. A stylishly tiled, modern bathroom and separate WC complete this fantastic property.

Both outside areas are notable in size and predominantly South-West facing in position, allowing for all-day sun into the later hours of the day. The flat also has plenty of built-in storage options throughout including a significant cupboard at the back of the reception, with further storage in the hallway and kitchen.
