A 2 storey Edwardian property in the South Hampstead conservation area has been extensively rebuilt to provide a contemporary home behind a retained façade that includes 8 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, with a cinema and fitness room located in a large newly constructed basement. A centrally located top lit open rise stair brings daylight into the heart of the home. The generous plot width was exploited by creating a full width family room with tall glazed bi-fold doors overlooking the landscaped garden. The kitchen is finished in high gloss white lacquer with a quartz worktop and full height pocket doors allow the ground floor spaces to be either fully opened creating internal views right through the house or closed for privacy. The high specification includes a fully integrated A/V and security system, bespoke joinery units, underfloor heating, hardwood engineered floors and high quality large format tiles to all wet areas. The lightwell is designed as a cascaded planted wall that connects the basement level up to the landscaped rear garden.
