Located down a quiet gated mews, a short walk from the green expanse of Clapham Common and bustling Clapham High Street, this converted Victorian piano factory offers a peaceful haven close to the heart of the city. Just make sure to leave enough time in your packed schedule to enjoy it. The interior blends Victorian chic with contemporary design. Think exposed steel beams, bare brick walls and Crittal-style doors that provide a link to its warehouse roots. In addition, your hosts have deliberately sought out well-loved antique pieces with plenty of patina to add character throughout the home. An open layout on the ground floor creates a sociable space where you can spend time together as a group, whether you're cooking in the kitchen, reading a book in the sitting area or completing a crossword at the dining table. Elsewhere, there's a sophisticated office space where you can fire off a few emails if needed and a gorgeous enclosed courtyard perfect for making the most of warm summer days. Meanwhile, upstairs offers an additional sitting area beneath a soaring vaulted ceiling, with the home's four bedrooms leading off it. Leaving the tranquil sanctuary of the home behind, you won't have to walk... far before you're in the thick of things. There are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants within a fifteen-minute walk of your front door, along with fantastic transport links to other parts of London. The Northern Line provides effortless access to London's glittering West End, the newly revamped Kings Cross and canalside Camden Town. At the same time, local bus routes place the likes of Brixton, Camberwell and Peckham within easy reach.
