Dulwich is at the centre of London’s rental boom as a “Clapham exodus” sends prices soaring, property experts said today. Hundreds of families moving east to snap up bigger homes are turning the area into a new “nappy valley” to rival the traditional breeding ground of Battersea’s Northcote Road between Wandsworth and Clapham Common, according to the capital’s oldest letting agency Edmund Cude. The agency’s managing director Robert Nichols said: “There are quite a few people moving away from the Clapham area into the greener parts of Dulwich, because tenants can get somewhere bigger and increase their standard of living.

The commute is pretty straightforward and you see a lot of pushchairs and bumps around — Dulwich and East Dulwich are becoming the new nappy valley.” Rents for four-bedroom houses in Dulwich have shot up by nearly 20 per cent in two years with those for such properties in Barry Road and Crystal Palace Road rising by £400 to £2,600 a month since 2010, Mr Nichols said.

The huge demand for rentals has filtered down to smaller flats in North Cross Road, off East Dulwich’s Lordship Lane, which boasts a wealth of independent shops and local landmarks such as the Blue Mountain coffee house. Would-be tenants looking for a one-bedroom flat in North Cross Road are now paying £1,200 a month on average — 26 per cent more than in 2010. Rents for two-bed properties have surged by even more, up 28 per cent to £1,410 according to Edmund Cude. Rents are also up by an average of 20 per cent in nearby Bassano Street and Melbourne Grove, its figures showed. The price increases in Dulwich are nearly double the 12 per cent rise across the capital as a whole since September 2010, according to LSL Property Services. London renters now pay a record £1,092 on average, with rents rising 1.7 per cent in the past month — the fastest rate since November 2010. According to LSL, rents have risen for six months in a row because of a drought in the mortgage market, which has forced people to rent for longer.
