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.

Property details
Over 1,500 square feet of well-distributed living space is arranged over two levels, offering three double bedrooms, three bathrooms, fantastic living space, a private garden, and a further private courtyard. Immaculate throughout with high-quality finishes combined with characterful elements in a neutral and stylish palette. This impressive home is set within a beautiful period conversion, on a desirable road nestled between the green open spaces of Clapham Common and Battersea Park. A short stroll from Clapham Junction Station, Clapham South and Clapham Common Tube stations, this split-level apartment will appeal to a wide range of potential purchasers.
The heart of the home is a stunning dual-aspect open-plan living room that spans the entire length of the building, measuring over 40 feet in length. The perfect living space in which to cook, dine, entertain and lounge. The contemporary kitchen at the rear of the property is complete with a range cooker, high-end integrated appliances, ample storage and plenty of worktop surface space with a central island/breakfast bar. Dimensions allow for a large dining table with plenty of room for a comfortable and cosy lounge area. A characterful bay window at one end and large glass-panel sliding doors flood the room with natural light, allowing a seamless transition from the living area through to the 35ft, low-maintenance private garden. There is also a WC tucked away conveniently within the entrance hall.
Three double bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a convenient utility room sit peacefully on the floor below. The master bedroom is particularly appealing, with a walk-in wardrobe, a sleek en-suite bathroom, and access out onto the private patio at the rear. The second and third bedrooms are both comfortable doubles with built-in storage, one benefitting from patio access and the other an en-suite bathroom. A handy utility room and a modern, family-sized bathroom complete the property.
With over 1,500 square feet of internal living space, this spacious apartment has a larger total square footage than a number of three-bedroom period houses within close proximity, with considerably higher asking prices. Nestled within a popular residential pocket of SW11, North of Clapham Common, the apartment boasts an enviable location with a generous choice of transport links and amenities within a short stroll. Clapham Junction is minutes away, offering one of London’s best Overground stations as well as plenty of shops, cafes and bars. The property has Clapham Common at the end of the road, offering wide open green spaces, perfect for dog walks and reconnecting with nature. The new owners will benefit from being within walking distance to the boutique shops, cafes and restaurants in Clapham Old Town and Northcote Road. The weekend market on Venn Street and the local amenities on Clapham High Street are all within a short walk. Clapham Common and Clapham South tube stations (Northern Line) are also close by. Further transport options include the excellent local bus services and the Super Cycle Highway through Clapham providing quick and easy access to the City, West End and Canary Wharf.
