Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Although this large home is found in one of London's more well-to-do neighbourhoods, the interior design has a certain punky spirit in places. We're talking about the irreverent collection of artwork, the brightly coloured furnishings and an ensuite bathroom accessed via a bookcase. Yes, really. Rebellious decor aside, you'll find a truly impressive address that's full of natural light, especially underneath the glass roof in the kitchen-dining area. Step out the doors in this space and you'll be greeted with a garden that's not only pretty large for London standards, but also full of amenities for every age. The pretty magnolia tree and barbecue will appeal to those with more grown-up tastes, while the trampoline, wendy house and swing will sing to the not-so-grown-ups. As well as this private outdoor space, Wandsworth Common sits just across the street from the house, which offers sports facilities and pleasant walking routes. Tooting Bec Lido is twenty minutes away on the bus if you fancy an alfresco dip, while the shops of Oxford Circus take just over thirty-five minutes on public transport.

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.
