5 bed detached house for sale

Spencer Hill, Wimbledon, London SW19

Located moments from several notable Wimbledon Village schools, this striking five bedroom, three bathroom family home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property of architectural pedigree, thoughtfully extended and enhanced in keeping with its original vision.

Set behind a landscaped courtyard with off-street parking and an integral garage, the house is defined by its clean lines, generous volumes, and seamless integration with its gardens.

The living space unfolds across split levels, designed to maximise light and connection between areas. A dramatic reception and dining room span the upper ground floor with wall-to-wall glazing framing views of the mature rear garden. On the lower ground floor, a spacious kitchen, breakfast and family room opens through sliding doors onto an 81-foot landscaped garden — a space designed as an extension of the house itself. A utility area, walk-in larder and ample built-in storage ensure functionality complements form.

The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully arranged over the upper floors, with a luxurious principal suite featuring a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, two further family bathrooms, and a versatile study. Two top floor bedrooms and a loft room open out onto a substantial roof terrace, with the copper-clad roofline completing the home's distinctive silhouette.

Throughout, bespoke joinery, Shoji screens, maple and beech flooring and internal sightlines between levels lend warmth and texture to the modernist ethos.

A landmark in design and a sanctuary of calm, this remarkable home offers scope for further development, subject to the usual consents.
