In leafy Clapham, you’ll find this stylish studio tucked away in the eaves of a restored Victorian home. One of six apartments within the same building, the shared facilities are impressive. Think communal garden for barbecues and alfresco drinks, as well as an informal dining room and lounge to spill into if the weather doesn’t buck up. It’s worth noting that this is a studio, so the bedroom free-flows into the apartment’s private living space. But thanks to some clever zoning, the home feels remarkably roomy. Location-wise, Clapham South Underground is just a four-minute walk from your door, and Clapham Common’s brunch-worthy spots are a stroll away.
