Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a freehold development plot in Clapham Old Town with planning permission granted for a distinctive architect designed one bedroom freehold house of approximately 60 sq m (645 sq ft) with a private garden, as illustrated in the CGI. The approved scheme, designed by Studio Werc, creates a flexible home arranged over two levels, centred around a dramatic double height space and open plan living accommodation, extending to a small private garden ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. Freehold infill opportunities with planning permission within the Rectory Grove Conservation Area are exceptionally rare. Once built, the scheme will deliver a unique freehold house on a handsome residential street at the centre of one of Clapham’s most desirable neighbourhoods. The development site is held under a separate freehold title. Planning permission and listed building consent have been granted by the London Borough of Lambeth (refs: 24/01377/FUL and 24/01378/LB).
The consented scheme presents an excellent opportunity for either a small developer or an owner occupier seeking to create a bespoke freehold house moments from Clapham Common.

Situation

Clapham Manor Street is an attractive tree lined residential street within the Rectory Grove Conservation Area, characterised by handsome Georgian and early Victorian houses with a strong village atmosphere centred around nearby Clapham Old Town. The property is particularly well located, approximately five minutes’ walk from Clapham Common Underground Station (Northern Line) and the open green spaces of Clapham Common itself. The cafés, restaurants, boutiques and yoga studios of Clapham Old Town are also close by. Clapham North Underground Station and Clapham High Street Overground Station, providing connections to Clapham Junction, Shoreditch and beyond, are also within easy walking distance. Local amenities are excellent, including a swimming pool and several gyms within two minutes’ walk, as well as restaurants and two popular pubs on Clapham Manor Street itself.
