Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This Victorian home sits on a tree-lined street just moments from Wandsworth Common. With a Tube station and mainline railway within walking distance, zipping across London is no bother – though plenty of shops, restaurants, and wine bars are a short walk away. We think it's an excellent option for families. There's plenty of space inside – think two reception rooms, a light-filled kitchen, and even a study for remote workers. Best of all, there's a private garden to take advantage of, too. It's a sweet bonus come summertime and makes an ideal spot to enjoy an alfresco aperitif before dinner.

Local guide
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.
