This spectacular apartment is arranged over the ground floor of a grand Victorian mansion building, set back and surrounded by manicured gardens. Measuring approximately 1,834 sq ft, every detail has been carefully considered, from the underfloor heating powered by an air source heat pump, light switches by Buster & Punch, quality oak parquet flooring, bathrooms by Porcelanosa and Clapham Park Bathrooms, and the kitchen by Schmidt with Wi-Fi-enabled devices. Award-winning Finn Fort locks have been used, together with a Ring doorbell and Simplisafe security monitoring system, and external security and decorative lights serve to enhance the private rear garden. An integrated and discrete air-conditioning system allows for cooling in the hot summer months with split zonal controls across the property. The property's external features further add to its unique appeal, including two designated off-street parking spaces both with EV charge ports, a rear private walled garden, expansive additional communal gardens, external storage, and private side entry. The restored antique Victorian front door opens into a generous hallway from which the four bedrooms, utility room, laundry room, living areas, and family bathroom extend. The principal suite is to the rear of the property overlooking the private garden terrace. This room features a walk-through wardrobe, en suite shower room, and restored Victorian fireplace. To the front of the property are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a second principal suite with an en suite bathroom featuring his and hers sinks, a capacious bath and separate shower. All bedrooms benefit from beautiful sash windows, bespoke cabinetry, and fitted wardrobes. The immaculate and expansive open-plan kitchen/dining/living area overlooks the rear garden and measures an incredible 44 ft in length. The striking Schmidt kitchen has been designed to offer a luxurious culinary experience and benefits from an extensive range of Wi-Fi-enabled appliances, including a full-height fridge, full-height freezer, two integrated ovens, two microwave-combis, dishwasher, wine cooler, and internal cabinet lighting. In the heart of the kitchen area, there is a large island/breakfast bar finished with Calcutta Gold quartz surfaces. The kitchen is beautifully lit with a range of carefully considered lighting options. The dining space extends beyond, offering comfortable seating for 12 and opens into the modern extension with a living area. This is the ideal contemporary space for both everyday life and entertaining. Natural light illuminates through two large skylights and floor-to-ceiling, dual-aspect Crittall-style windows and doors, which open onto the private walled garden. The fluidity created between interior and exterior spaces provides a sense of tranquillity and privacy unique to the property. The garden has been expertly landscaped to incorporate the original walls and features elegant cedar batten fencing and raised beds. The garden lighting has been well considered to make the most of the outdoor space, connecting the interior and exterior, ideal for al fresco eating and entertaining in the summer months. The secure gated side access to the front of the property is perfect for muddy boots, dogs, and bikes. This superb property is set on Nightingale Lane, with the open spaces of both Clapham and Wandsworth Common just a short walk away.
