Templewood Avenue, Hampstead
Private Residence

 


This is a private house in Hampstead situated in a conservation area of large red-brick neo-Georgian/Queen Ann style houses; the design is radical rather than imitative. It responds to the innovative architectural tradition of this area of Frognal, while respecting the quality and amenity of its immediate surroundings.
Beneath a floating green roof, the building is a series of planted terraces captured between pairs of masonry walls and accented with timber and glass elements.
The scheme replaced an existing house on the site and maximised habitable area by creating two wings close to site boundaries with inward looking spaces surrounding a winter garden and a west facing courtyard.

Accommodation comprises:
Basement - Swimming Pool, 3 garages and winder garden
Ground Floor - Living room, kitchen, dining room, study, morning room and guest bedroom
First Floor - 5 bedrooms all ensuite.
