Property details

Keating Estates are proud to present to market a spacious two double bedroom, split-level apartment within an attractive purpose built property, set back from the street in a popular residential pocket between Clapham and Battersea, with transport options in every direction.

Lovingly cared for by the current vendors, this appealing home underwent refurbishment just two years ago, including a full re-decoration, new kitchen, new suspended ceilings in the living room and bedroom and replacement radiators throughout with thermostatic valves to give greater control of your heating and a nest thermostat for connection remotely to pre turn on when away from the flat.

Set to the first floor, the reception room offers sizeable proportions, flooded with natural light from large pane windows and featuring characterful wooden flooring, with comfortable space to lounge on a large sofa, this bright and neutral room is the perfect hub in which to entertain or unwind, complete with a feature fireplace and a handy storage cupboard to the rear of the room. Keeping the dishes tucked separately away, the kitchen was refurbished two years ago with contemporary white cabinetry bouncing light around the room, complimented by wooden worktops. The units wrap around to create an ergonomic space which provides everything you need in terms of practicality with ample storage and plentiful work surfaces.

Upstairs, both bedrooms are doubles, the principal of which is particularly sizeable and nestled behind a large bay window complete with a cosy window seat. Still a double, the second bedroom is currently an attractive nursery, with leafy views and characterful wooden flooring. Fully re-fitted six years ago including with a new boiler, the bathroom is styled to suit contemporary trends, complete with storage and equipped with a bathtub plus overhead shower. Completing this fantastic home is further storage on both the upstairs landing and next to the private entrance in the downstairs hall, providing plentiful space to keep essential belongings neatly hidden away.

The location is key, potential purchasers will benefit from the boutique shops, cafes and restaurants in Clapham Old Town and Venn Street, plus the vibrant and eclectic eateries of Wandsworth Road right on your doorstep. The local amenities on Clapham High Street are all within a short stroll and in the other direction the exciting bustle of Battersea Power Station is just a twenty-minute walk. The green open spaces of Battersea Park and Clapham Common are also a twenty-three and thirteen minute walk.

The transport links are fantastic with options in every direction, with the Overground at Wandsworth Road just a six-minute stroll away, taking you to Clapham Junction and through Canada Water to Dalston Junction. There are trains to Waterloo from Queenstown Road, and trains to London Bridge and Victoria just three-minutes further at Battersea Park. The Northern Line is also on offer in both directions, from Battersea Power Station, Clapham North and Clapham Common Tube Stations, plus the Victoria Line at Stockwell. Coupled with excellent local bus services and the Super Cycle Highway through Clapham there are many quick and easy access routes into central London, West End and Canary Wharf. There are also day and night bus links at the bottom of the road whisking you to Central London including Covent Garden and Waterloo.

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.
