The Best New Homes In Clapham

Posted 23 January 2024 by Keith Osborne

WhatHouse.com takes a look at the district of Clapham and some of the best new homes for sale there…

Thanks to its exceptional amenities and connectivity, Clapham has a great reputation as a place to live, so it’s no wonder that housebuilders and developers are always active building new homes there to meet demand.

Now lying within the London Boroughs of Lambeth and Wandsworth, from the late 19th to the early 20th centuries, Clapham became a respectable commuter suburb, and some of its historic character can be found in the Old Town area. The whole district has grown in diversity, and while it very much has its own character and lots to offer right on the doorstep, its abundance of Zone 2 public transport services makes the area ideal for people who want easy access to other parts of the capital and outside of London.

A wide selection of useful and fun places are to be found in Clapham: superstores and boutique shops; cultural and events centres; medical and fitness centres; and, for families, a host of highly ranked state and independent schools. The Clapham Grand and Picturehouse are just a couple of the well-known venues to be found here.

Clapham Junction, one of the UK’s busiest railway stations, is on the western edge of the district and is surrounded by an impressive range of shops, services and entertainment, but there are other areas which have an equally diverse range of retail outlets, essential services and places to enjoy a busy social life.

Clapham Common is one of London’s treasured green spaces, with 220 acres of parkland, sports pitches, ponds, play areas and network of paths for walkers, runners and cyclists. At the top corner of the park, Clapham Common Tube station is on the Northern line and situated at one end of Clapham High Street, well served by a host of shops, restaurants and bars, which leads to Clapham North, an area with its own Tube station and separate National rail station. At the bottom of the common is another Northern line station, Clapham South, and the A24 runs from here across south London into Surrey.
