Features and description
This handsome two-bedroom apartment lies on Rudloe Road, close to Abbeville Village in Clapham, south-west London. The house, entirely refurbished, extended and re-configured in recent years, was cleverly conceived to make the most of the infill plot it occupies. Set across one level and designed for open-plan living, its internal accommodation revolves around a quiet and private courtyard garden. Clapham South station is a nine-minute walk away, with the green expanse of Clapham Common just beyond.
The Tour
The house is situated on a quiet residential street. Entry to the apartment is on Rudloe Road, where the distinctive building’s brick façade is defined by a set of bespoke, reinstated wooden-framed windows that encourage the flow of natural light across the living spaces.
A partially glazed front door opens directly onto a bright reception room with kitchen, dining and seating areas. Here, the impression of volume and light is enhanced by a combination of white-painted walls, white concrete floors and two expansive, pitched skylights overhead. There is underfloor heating throughout the main living spaces and in the bathroom.
Immediately to the front is a contemporary kitchen, tucked to one side and arranged in a functional U-shape layout. Bespoke white units are topped with sleek Corian worktops, in stark contrast with black, integrated appliances by Bosch.
The space stretches beyond to an open-plan dining and living area that unfolds towards the back of the former garage's footprint. Smart sections of exposed brick have been retained, a subtle nod to the apartment's previous use. Black-framed, factory-style glazed doors open directly onto a raised courtyard.
An arterial hallway connects to the principal bedroom, positioned at the far end of the plan. Finished with white-washed walls and floorboards, it has high ceilings and a grand, double-glazed sash window. A striking art deco fireplace with marble surrounds completes the space. A second, more compact, bedroom lies next door and has direct access to the courtyard. It is well-appointed with powder-blue walls that create an enveloping atmosphere, while white-painted floorboards run underfoot.
Along the hallway, just opposite the courtyard, is a shared bathroom, accessed via a frosted glazed factory-style door. The walls, sink, shelving and shower are formed of micro-cement, echoing the Moroccan-inspired design of the courtyard, while slate tiles extend underfoot.
The apartment is complemented by a small cellar, which is accessed via a walk-in closet, positioned next to the bathroom. Ideally suited as a storage area, the space is restricted in height and runs from the back of the bathroom through to the front wall of the principal bedroom.
Outdoor Space
At the rear of the reception area, glazed doors provide direct access to a raised private courtyard. Here, leafy climbers and Moroccan tiles create a wonderfully peaceful oasis, perfect for relaxing outside on warmer days.
The Area
Rudloe Road runs to the south of Clapham Common and is a short walk from the independent shops, restaurants and cafes of Abbeville Village. Here, local favourites include The Ginger Pig butchers, Bottle Apostle and The Abbeville pub. Clapham Common is 10 minutes away on foot, home to over 200 acres of parkland, three ponds, as well as a café and sports facilities. Agnes Riley Park is a five-minute walk from the house, providing a peaceful, community-focused space.
Balham is a short stroll to the south, where Hildreth Street has a host of popular places to try, including Milk, Antipodean coffee shop Brickwood, Clapton Craft and The Devonshire. Little House Balham, part of Soho House, adds a touch of exclusivity to the area. The are fantastic dining opportunities nearby, including The Apple Blue, authentic Japanese at Taro and Peruvian at The Post Food Court.
Clapham South station is a nine-minute walk from the house, with the Northern line connecting to London Bridge in 16 minutes and King’s Cross St Pancras in 27 minutes. Balham station is an 18-minute walk away, providing Southern rail services to Victoria and London Bridge, as well as access to the Northern Line. The Cycle Superhighway 7 runs from Balham High Street to Southwark Bridge, ideal for cyclists commuting into central London. Gatwick Airport is 25 minutes away from Clapham Junction.
