Description

Originally a grand residence but more recently a residential care home for
The Salvation Army. The prominent main building “Alver Bank” was built in the mid-19th century as a single residence, before being acquired by the Salvation Army and converted into a residential care home in 1935. The property comprises 13,219 sq ft arranged over basement, ground and first floors.

In the 1970s the property was extended and Alver Court was built onto the eastern side of the original building, as well as a timber community centre to the rear of the main building. Alver Court added 3,929 sq ft of accommodation across ground and first floors whilst the community centre provides 1,188 sq ft.

The property is accessed via a front drive way from West Road or at the rear from Mayfield Close. There is parking on site currently and mature, landscaped grounds.

The site is located at Alver Bank, 17 West Road, Clapham, SW4 7DL, within the London Borough of Lambeth.

The surrounding area is characterised by a blend of period properties, including Victorian and Edwardian terraces, alongside contemporary residential developments. The site benefits from its proximity to Clapham high Street, a vibrant hub lined with independent boutiques, cafes, bars, and popular restaurants, as well as the sought-after Abbeville Village, known for its charming parade of shops, artisanal delis, and relaxed, community-focused atmosphere.
