Cubic Modernist New Build House,
Located in the heart of one of Wimbledon’s conservation areas is a stunning, modern, new build house. The house is located at the top of Edge Hill, adjacent to Wimbledon College and the beautiful building of Sacred Heart Church.
The house is located on the site of a former single storey bungalow constructed in the 1950’s. Due to the siting of the property within the plot, , a third of the house is within a subterranean basement level. Above ground is a pure white cube, with large full height windows that allow light to flood the space. The property contrasts perfectly with the established trees to the front and the surrounding area.
At the heart of the project the intention was to create amazing internal spaces from the basement level up to the first floor. To help achieve this, high ceilings, full height windows and a large open entrance hall (with a large slit rooflight) were proposed.
The house has a unique architectural, linear, cubic form, it is set within a conservation area and surrounded by period properties.
