This apartment overlooks a peaceful square. It’s ideal for a couple looking for a London base that’s slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, but it’s still remarkably convenient. Clapham Common is just a two-minute walk away, offering easy access to a green space, as well as cafes, restaurants, and pubs. On Saturdays, Venn Street food market is the place to be. The apartment’s open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space is where you’ll likely spend most of your downtime, cooking together or unwinding on the sofas. This isn’t the most modern home in our London collection, but it’s comfortable and convenient.

About White City
The history of White City is surprisingly recent by London’s standards. It takes its name from the former 200-acre complex where white stucco palaces and Venetian-style canals formed an opulent Victorian exhibition site as well as hosting the 1908 Olympics. Now an exciting area of regeneration, the district consists predominantly of low-rise residences and the mammoth Westfield Centre.
