The Clapham Crib

Summary:

Renovated in January 2026, this five-bedroom home has been reconfigured to include a dedicated gym and enhanced living space.



The Space:

Recently renovated and reconfigured, this substantial five-storey home now offers five bedrooms alongside a dedicated gym space, providing greater flexibility for families, groups, and longer stays. Formerly arranged as a four-bedroom property, the layout has been carefully updated to enhance both sleeping accommodation and lifestyle space, while retaining generous proportions throughout.

• Bathroom with walk-in shower



First Floor

• Open-plan kitchen and dining area with modern appliances and ample workspace

• Additional reception area extending the living space, suitable for entertaining or day-to-day living

The Neighborhood:

This area of Clapham is particularly well regarded for its balance of green space, residential calm, and lively local amenities. The nearby common is a major focal point, offering wide open lawns, walking routes, sports facilities, and a strong sense of community throughout the year.



The neighbourhood is known for its independent cafés, casual dining spots, and long-standing local favourites, creating a vibrant but approachable atmosphere. Surrounding areas provide further variety, with easy access to neighbouring districts that offer additional restaurants, markets, and cultural venues. Overall, the location works equally well for longer stays, family visits, or guests wanting a local London experience with straightforward access to the city.
