This beautifully crafted four-bedroom detached house, designed by award-winning architecture studio 31/44 Architects, is set back from Inglemere Road in Forest Hill. A secluded sanctuary spanning over 1,600 sq ft, the architecture encourages a gentle play of light; the sun cascades deep into the plan, care of a roof terrace, two courtyards and a verdant garden. Located on a former plot of garages, the house nestles between a 1960s apartment block and a short terrace of two-storey homes. The house’s massing mediates between these shifts in scale in a fashion which is both unobtrusive and functional, the result being a design that works artfully to create a dynamic, light-filled space.
