Larkhall Rise - The Tour

Originally dating to the 19th century, the house sits on a quiet road, believed to have been a Clapham thoroughfare since the Domesday Book. A large gravel driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles.

Steps ascend to the raised ground floor where the front door opens to an entrance hall. To the left is a drawing room, replete with sash windows, ornate ceiling plaster work and fireplace.

The kitchen is located at the rear of this floor, where south-east facing windows pour light across the room. There is also a WC, and descending steps to access the garden.

On the first floor are two bedrooms, with access to a beautifully designed bathroom located on a split-level recess on ascension from the ground floor.

A further two bedrooms on the second floor have the share of a third bathroom and the benefit of a verdant outlook from a private roof terrace.

External steps to the lower ground floor provide an alternative entrance to the property. As it is currently arranged, this floor holds a bedroom to the front of the house. A playroom, utility room and shower room are located to the rear, with additional access to the garden.

The secluded garden with mature trees is some 100 ft in length. It is mainly laid to lawn with a lovely terrace adjoining the rear of the property and a garden studio at the end.

Set within easy reach of Clapham Old Town, the property benefits from an array of amenities, including a cinema, gyms, beauty salons, bars, restaurants, boutiques, supermarkets and cafes.

Local transport links include Clapham North and Clapham Common Underground Stations (Northern Line), as well as Wandsworth Road Station providing overground rail access to Canada Water in six stops. The area is renowned for its excellent selection of local state and private schools including Clapham Manor Primary school, nearby Eaton House, Parkgate School, Thomas's, Newton Prep and L'école de Wix Lycée français.
