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
Keating Estates are proud to present to market an appealing three double bedroom split-level flat with a private South-East facing garden on Rhodesia Road, a quiet and neighbourly street in Clapham, a short walk to the High Street with access to the Northern and Victoria Lines.
Measuring over 850 square feet of internal space, the home has been lovingly renovated throughout by the current vendors during their time of ownership, including yet not limited to, a new bathroom, new kitchen, new flooring downstairs and landscaping the garden, making the property an attractive home ready to live in straight away with the potential to add your own touches over time.
Flooded with natural light through large windows, the reception room is spacious with a sociable yet restful ambience, offering ample space in which to unwind in front of the attractive feature fireplace. Further period features of this inviting room are the high, corniced ceilings and restored original floorboards. Adjacent, the separate kitchen is set to the rear overlooking the garden. Subject to the necessary permissions, the positioning of these rooms offers the potential to combine into one substantial space should open-plan living be preferred. Fully integrated, the contemporary kitchen provides ample storage down both sides with appliances neatly concealed, creating an airy and ergonomic space in which to cook, finished with vibrant tiling for a stylish flash of colour. A patio door with paned glass surround draws natural light into the room and allows fresh air to breeze through, whilst providing access to the private garden for an ease of transition to al-fresco dining.
South-East facing there is sun in the garden throughout the day. Landscaped with a lawn framed by a paved patio area, this pretty garden is surrounded by greenery creating a soothing escape from city life, an ideal space in which to host BBQs, bask in the sun or relax under the stars with a glass of your favourite tipple.
Ideal for families or those wishing to rent out a room or two, the bedrooms are all doubles, peacefully nestled to the rear, away from the already quiet street. The two largest bedrooms are particulalry well proportioned, of similar size with fitted wardrobes, separated from one another on differing levels of the home. The upper bedroom is currently utilised as the principal bedroom, whilst downstairs the second spacious double is currently a secondary lounge with a sofa bed, previously used as a dining room. Still a comfortable double, the third bedroom is also set to the ground floor, with ample space for the traditional bedroom furnishings. The family-sized bathroom is stylishly neutral, equipped with a bathtub with overhead shower and integrated storage, finished with contemporary textured tiling.
Within this fantastically versatile home, there is also lots of built in storage including a cellar which is fully fitted out for storing those essential items not used on a daily basis. Of further benefit, the roof has recently been re-tiled and pointed. Precedent has also been set on the road should the purchaser wish to seek the necessary permissions to extend into the side return in the future, further increasing the footprint of this already sizeable apartment.
Rhodesia Road is a quiet residential road, set within a neighbourly community in the heart of Clapham North. The property is located just a seven-minute stroll from Clapham High Street with its multitude of restaurants and bars, leading through to the cafes and boutique shops in Clapham Old Town and Abbeville Village. The Venn Street market is a great place to explore on a Saturday afternoon and with the green open spaces of Clapham Common at the end of the High Street, there are the amenities to cater for a wide range of potential purchasers. If a change of scenery is desired, Stockwell is also a seven-minute walk and, in the other direction, central Brixton is a leisurely twelve minute wander away, providing further independent eateries, nightlife and entertainment including The Upstairs private members club and the famous Brixton Village.
There are excellent transport links facilitating access into central London in fifteen minutes, with two Northern Line underground stations (Clapham Common and Clapham North), Clapham High Street Station on the Overground, Stockwell tube station (Victoria and Northern Line) and numerous bus routes to other areas of London, all within a few minutes' walk.
