Walk a few minutes in one direction and you'll come to the gloriously green Clapham Common, while a ten-minute stroll in the opposite direction will take you to Wandsworth Common. Its location means this charming little home is ideal if you'd like to stay near the bright lights of the city while keeping well away from the concrete jungle. Here it's all about long walks on the commons and lazy brunches on the buzzing Northcote Road – all the while being just a fifteen-minute walk from Clapham Junction station for journeys into central London. Part of a traditional period home, the apartment is set over two floors with high ceilings, a pretty bay window and wood floors. Pick a book from the shelves and settle down on one of the cosy sofas in front of the huge vintage map in the living room, or whip up dinner in the sociable, modern kitchen. French doors lead out to a small garden with a table and chairs.

About Wandsworth
Wandsworth attracts young families and professionals with its residential streets and open spaces. The Common is a standout attraction here where you'll feel a world away from the busyness of London life. The area is also pretty well-connected with a number of rail stations that will get you into Waterloo and Victoria in around 15 minutes. If you want a bit of piece and quiet while also remaining in touching distance of Central London, Wandsworth could serve you well for your stay.
