It’s so sculptural it should be in an art gallery” Kelly Hoppen 26 27 This is a house like no other. Thrilling and glamorous yet serene and inviting, it is a house that delights from front door to rooftop. Inspiring and uplifting, it’s a place to call home. All aspects of modern family life are effortlessly integrated with top-spec technology.

The command and control centre is concealed in the study allowing room by room programmable control. You would expect a sophisticated security system and this house doesn’t disappoint. There’s a 24/7 360-degree surveillance system all around the house, BPT entry system and a panic button in the master bedroom. Parking space in this part of London is rare, so off-road parking for two cars is a welcome feature. The garage has automated doors and gates making parking even more secure.
