Your private South London retreat with garden and workspace

Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined residential street in South Lambeth, this stylish one-bedroom apartment sits within a characterful Victorian terrace on the border of Vauxhall and Stockwell in South London. Thoughtfully furnished with a modern, open-plan interior and warm timber flooring throughout, the apartment sleeps up to four guests across a comfortable double bedroom and a sofa bed available on request in the living area. It is ideally suited to couples, solo travellers, remote workers, pet owners, and guests looking for a flexible longer-term base in the capital.

What makes this apartment stand out is a rare combination of features that are genuinely difficult to find in inner South London: a private backyard garden with outdoor dining, a dedicated workspace, and a home that genuinely feels like somewhere to settle into rather than simply pass through. Whether you are here for a city break, a work trip, or an extended stay, the apartment has been set up to make your time as comfortable and easy as possible.

A Home to Relax and Unwind

Step inside and the open-plan layout immediately puts you at ease. The living area is anchored by an emerald velvet sofa dressed with orange cushions, set against warm timber flooring that runs throughout the space. A flat-screen TV sits on a timber media unit, and a glass dining table with upholstered chairs creates a sociable spot for meals in. The room flows naturally into the kitchen without any barriers, making the whole space feel generous and connected - easy for one guest to cook while others relax, or for a small group to gather comfortably at the end of a long day.

The Nespresso machine, cooking basics, and wine glasses all speak to us who has thought carefully about what guests actually need, and the private garden beyond the kitchen door transforms the apartment further still. Morning coffee outside, a relaxed al fresco dinner, or simply unwinding in the fresh air - the garden gives this apartment a quality of life that goes well beyond a typical London flat.

The Layout

Living and Dining Area
The open-plan living space is bright and welcoming, with natural light coming through the front windows and a warm, cohesive feel throughout. The emerald velvet sofa provides a comfortable spot to unwind, with the TV positioned directly opposite. The glass dining table with upholstered chairs seats the group and sits just steps from the kitchen, making it a natural hub for mealtimes. A sofa bed is available in this space for guests who require it; please let us know in advance and it will be made up ready for your arrival.

Kitchen
The shaker-style kitchen is fully equipped and well stocked for home cooking. It includes a gas hob, oven, microwave, Nespresso machine, toaster, hot water kettle, fridge, and freezer. Cooking basics, dishes and silverware, wine glasses, and a coffee maker are all provided. The kitchen opens directly onto the garden, making it easy to move between cooking indoors and dining outside.

Bedroom
The double bedroom is a calm and well-considered space. Floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes and built-in overhead storage keep the room feeling organised and uncluttered, while the plush double bed dressed in crisp white bedding with yellow accents creates a welcoming place to rest. A window looks out towards the garden, and a dedicated work desk with a lamp and plants offers a quiet spot for anyone working remotely or simply winding down with a book in the evening.

Bathroom
The bathroom is fitted with a rainfall shower, a bidet, a pedestal basin, and a heated chrome towel rail. Fresh bed linens and towels are provided for every stay, along with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and shower gel.

Laundry
A washer and dryer are available for guest use, stacked in the utility area adjacent to the shower room.

Garden
The private backyard garden is one of the most appealing features of this apartment and a genuinely rare find for an inner London property. Furnished with outdoor dining furniture, it is perfect for morning coffees, relaxed al fresco meals, or simply sitting outside at the end of the day. Guests have full access to the garden throughout their stay.

Location

The apartment is situated on Tradescant Road in South Lambeth, a calm and community-minded residential area that sits neatly between the neighbourhoods of Vauxhall and Stockwell. The surrounding streets have a relaxed, local feel, with independent cafes, restaurants, and everyday amenities all within easy walking distance along South Lambeth Road and Stockwell Road.

Stockwell Underground Station, serving both the Victoria and Northern lines, is approximately seven minutes on foot, giving guests fast and direct access to the rest of London. Vauxhall Station, which connects the Victoria line with National Rail services and multiple bus routes including night buses, is around twelve minutes away on foot. From Vauxhall, the South Bank with its galleries, restaurants, and riverside walks is easily accessible.

Brixton, renowned for its vibrant food scene, lively market, and cultural energy, is just one stop from Stockwell on the Victoria line, approximately eight minutes by tube. London Victoria Station, with its mainline rail connections and onward Victoria line links, is three stops from Stockwell and around twelve minutes by tube. Oxford Circus and the heart of Central London are approximately eighteen minutes away from Stockwell on the Victoria line, direct, with no changes required.

Battersea Power Station, now home to a growing selection of shops, restaurants, and event spaces, is approximately twenty minutes on foot or a short ride on the 156 bus. Closer to home, Vauxhall Park and the Bonnington Square community garden are both within walking distance and make for a pleasant escape from the city.
