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
This endearingly characterful two double bedroom flat is a fantastic example of a period conversion, arranged over the first floor of a handsome Victorian, end-of-terrace house. An appealing layout, great dimensions and an unrivalled location within a highly sought-after area with very easy reach of Clapham High street and Stockwell mean that this property will appeal to anyone looking for a buy-to-let, a flat to share with friends or for a lovely pied-a-terre.
Set back significantly from the road, the flat itself boasts over 750 square feet, and comprises a spacious living area, well-equipped kitchen, two generous double bedrooms and a modern bathroom. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned doubles that are separated by the bathroom, providing a comfortable level of privacy between the two. They are both peacefully tucked away at the rear of the building, making them ideal for restful nights and quiet work-from-home days, one being equipped with significant built-in storage.
High ceilings add to the sense of space within this charming property, each room also boasts a lovely airy and bright atmosphere, with the reception being no exception. This large space boasts a stunning feature fireplace and offers an ideal room to relax, unwind, dine and entertain with a characterful bay window and easy access to the neighbouring kitchen. Subject to necessary permissions, it would be possible to expand on both these spaces by combining the two to create an impressive open-plan kitchen-reception, as is so popular in the modern day.
There are excellent transport links with Clapham North, Stockwell and Clapham High Street stations just over a 5-minute walk, and giving you access to the Northern, Victoria and Overground lines. The area is also very well served by buses. Clapham Road is located at the end of Clapham High Street and has a multitude of restaurants and bars. The cafes and boutique shops in Clapham Old Town, Abbeville Village and Battersea are all within reach and the Venn Street market is a great place to explore on a Saturday afternoon. With the green open spaces of Clapham Common and Battersea Park, there is truly something for everyone.
