Summary - Clapham Common North Side SW4 0AA
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Victorian grandeur and long lease next to sweeping green space.
Front-facing reception with 3.9m high ceilings and parquet flooring
Set within an impressive Grade II Victorian building on Clapham Common North Side, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment — known as ‘The Ballroom’ — delivers exceptional proportions, abundant natural light and far-reaching green views. The reception room’s 3.9m ceilings, original cornices and parquet flooring create genuine period character and an immediate sense of occasion.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 980 years) and a share of freehold, plus residents’ access to communal gardens and off-street parking. The large principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and the flat’s layout separates reception, kitchen and bathroom, offering comfortable, flexible living in a central, well-connected location.
Buyers should note material constraints: the building’s listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate works, and the solid brick construction likely has no cavity insulation. Service charges are above average at about £6,000 per year. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile signal. The property is in a lively inner-city area with pockets of deprivation nearby.
This home will suit someone seeking striking period space and park-facing views who accepts conservation limits and higher running costs. It also offers strong rental potential for investors or an atmospheric first purchase for buyers prioritising location and historic features over turnkey modernisation.
