Summary:
Lovely studio flat with separate kitchen. This is my London pied-à-terre where I live during the week. It’s just a short walk to Clapham Common or a 5 minute bus ride to Clapham Junction, so there is great access to Central London and the City.
The Space:
This is a very comfortable and cosy studio flat in a lovely part of town. It’s on the upper ground floor of a period townhouse and consists of a combined living/sleeping area, a bathroom and a separate kitchen.
LIVING AREA / BEDROOM
The room is full of light from the windows overlooking Victoria Rise, and tastefully furnished with a large corner sofa, coffee table and flatscreen TV. There’s then a very comfortable double bed on a raised mezzanine area to the rear of the room. Please note that there’s no formal dining area, as typically it’s just me living here.
KITCHEN
The kitchen lies just off the main living space and, despite being a very compact affair, is equipped with all the essentials: oven, hob, fridge, toaster and kettle. Guests are welcome to help themselves to the teas and coffees provided.
BATHROOM
The bathroom also lies off the main living area and comprises of a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, toilet and basin.
