If you're looking for a central base, within easy reach of many of London's top sights and attractions, this ideally located two-bedroom flat in Clapham is the perfect pick. Not only will you have a modern and comfortable place to return to, but you're a fourteen-minute walk from the leafy common, fantastic for morning wanders in the park, while Clapham Junction tube station is only eleven minutes away on foot, connecting you to the likes of Wandsworth and Battersea in less than twenty minutes. Inside, the cosy living room includes a comfy sofa, as well as lots of homey decorative touches that will have you feeling at ease from the moment you arrive. Both bedrooms are wonderfully bright and minimal so you'll have no trouble getting a restful night's sleep in the city either. But the biggest draw is, of course, your private outside space, complete with garden furniture so you can sit back with your morning coffee and plan for your day ahead in the English capital.
