This London apartment is a ten-minute stroll from both Wandsworth Common and Clapham Common. You’ll find plenty of pubs and restaurants within a five-minute walk, and for discovering the rest of the capital, Clapham Junction train station is nearby. The home itself centres around an open-plan living area, where you can enjoy sociable meals. You’ve also got a private balcony here – a great spot for a morning coffee before heading out to see the sights. We think this city pad is ideal for a family or two couples wanting a comfortable base with easy access to central London.
