This impressive 1830s coach house and its vast green garden have been lovingly transformed into an unexpected hidden oasis in Clapham. This rare find will soothe the soul with its serene views, stylish light-filled rooms and marvellous outdoor space – perfect for family barbecues. Contemporary finishings of a high quality bring both comfort and practicality to this one-story home. We particularly love the Parquet flooring seen throughout, which is further complemented by a mix of Scandinavian, Italian and British furniture and eclectic artwork. Hidden details such as the underfloor heating and pocket doors that open up onto the huge garden make this home truly special. Enjoy stepping outside each morning for a breath of fresh air and a cup of coffee in hand. Since Clapham was recently voted the best place to live in London, you won't be short of things to enjoy locally. Try out the bars, restaurants, cafes and shopping scenes of the vibrant Brixton and Clapham areas, before connecting further afield with the easily accessible transport links within walking distance of the home.

Home truths
The home is set on a road with constant busy traffic but you'd never know it once you're inside. The front bedroom overlooks the driveway and is the only room that receives traffic noise when the windows are open
There is a driveaway with an electric gate for free parking - most parking in London is permitted only, so if you're bringing a car this is a real benefit
Children's amenities including a baby bath, dinnerware and a changing table are available
This is a single level home, meaning there are no stairs to climb
