Originally a '2 up 2 down' railway workers cottages, constructed around 1880, the home has under gone many extensions and improvements over the years.

The remodelling and extensions were carried out in 2008-09, and the architect was mba of Wimbledon, with interior design by MMM of Maida Vale. Energy efficiency and comfort was a priority of the project, and therefore included high levels of insulation to roof, walls and floors which exceeded Building Regulations requirements, and the use of high "thermal mass" insulation in the new roof to moderate peak summer temperatures and improve acoustic performance. Similarly the extension is most built in high density block to stabilise temperature and improve acoustic performance.

All the new timber framed windows are good quality units from Rationel of Denmark, using "Low E" coatings and uprated thicker glass. The double storey glazing to the link is also Low-e. So impressive, the project was even written up and published in 'Green Building' magazine.

The oak roof structure, and exposed beams in the kitchen diner, were provided and installed by McCurdy & Co, the firm who restored Shakespeare's Globe Theatre! Meanwhile the oak floorboards across the first floor were salvaged from a refurb of John Lennon's property on St Georges Hill.

The Victorian part of the house also has 300-400mm of loft insulation, and retrofitted rigid insulation between the ground floor joists.

Viewings are essential to really soak in all the house has to offer.
