The Curved House

London SW4
Sold
The Curved House occupies its own hidden plot in a quiet residential area of Clapham. Also on the plot are a small study building and a self-contained studio annexe (available by negotiation), but the star is undoubtedly the house itself.  One of the most celebrated architect-designed houses to have been built in London in recent years, it is an uplifting and audacious piece of design. Shaped as the name of the house suggests, it features full floor-to-ceiling glass walls on the ground floor and an upper storey clad in Sweet Chestnut (constructed by a Norfolk boat builder). In the basement is a circular library / cinema room with polished plaster walls. The house features underfloor heating throughout.

The central space of the house is a large split-level kitchen and living room. The kitchen is fitted with Tissettanta units and a bespoke stainless-steel island. The living room is designed around a large fireplace. The main bedroom suite features a striking Bisazza-tiled, sunken bath / shower space. Upstairs a large, open-plan space currently provides accommodation for three children. Designed to be easily divided into three separate rooms, the space could be put to a number of uses. Due to the dynamic nature of the design of the house, it is in demand as a location for film and photography shoots, which earns the current owners a considerable income.

The house is entered via an area of off-street parking and a set of old coach-house doors. Leading up to the house one passes a utility area, a private garden, steps to the self-contained studio annexe and a new study building.

The local neighbourhood is known as Abbeville Village and is characterised by a grid of Victorian streets centred around a popular area of independent shops, bars and restaurants. The large, green space of Clapham Common is a short walk away. The nearest Underground station is Clapham South, which can be reached on foot in under five minutes.
