Situated in the heart of Clapham Junction, this spacious two-bedroom duplex offers generous living spaces and a private roof terrace — rare for the area. The flat combines period character in the reception with modern fittings in the kitchen and two bathrooms, including a principal en-suite. At 1,032 sq ft it feels much larger than a typical two-bed and suits buyers who value space and outdoor entertaining.
Practical points are straightforward: the property is Share of Freehold, moments from Clapham Junction station and Northcote Road shops and cafés, and benefits from excellent broadband and mobile signal. The warm-air gas heating and large windows create a bright, airy interior with high ceilings and built-in shelving around the fireplace, adding charm and storage.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and cavity walls are shown as having no added insulation, so energy performance may be average and further insulation could be needed. The area records very high crime levels, which may concern some purchasers. The layout is multi-story duplex — good for privacy but may be less convenient for mobility-restricted buyers.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers or couples seeking generous central living with outdoor space, plus buyers wanting a well-located home with potential to improve energy efficiency. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the roof terrace, high ceilings, and the flat’s scale.
