Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A dedicated entrance gives this London apartment a self-contained feel that's surprisingly easy to settle into. The living space is generous enough for sharing – whether that's an evening in with drinks or getting dinner going in the kitchen without losing the conversation. Two distinct bedrooms make the configuration flexible, suiting both couples and friends travelling together. With Clapham Common within walking distance and Westminster around forty minutes away by Tube, the real question is just where you'll head first.

Local guide
About Clapham
Clapham has the great benefit of having plenty of greenery while being close to some great transport links to get you into central London or you can stay closer to home and explore areas like Battersea and Chelsea. Popular with young affluent families for its laid-back, friendly, unfussy vibe, open green spaces and ever-growing foodie scene, Clapham offers you the opportunity to have a local, village-feel experience, away from the hordes of tourists.
