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.

Arlesford Road is an attractive residential street, with The Kerb Garden urban orchard at the end of the road and located equidistant to amenities in the coveted Clapham-Brixton-Stockwell Triangle, appealing to purchasers looking to buy in all three of these sought-after locations. In one direction the vibrant and diverse Clapham High Street (five-minute stroll) offers great nightlife, the green open spaces of Clapham Common and Abbeville Village is also within walking distance.

In short, a beautiful home in a convenient location, close to the action but far enough away to retain a real sense of calm.
