The house was designed in 1963 by Malcolm Pringle of Austin Vernon & Partners and can be found on Peckarman’s Wood, which is described as a ‘beautifully landscaped and peaceful setting’. According to the agent, houses on Peckarman’s Wood rarely become available and this particular property has never before been on the market.

That perhaps accounts for this house being in such a wonderful original condition, with floor-to-ceiling windows, wood panelling and plenty of period fixtures and fittings, from the staircase and internal glazing right down to the light fittings and tiling. All of it seems incredibly well-maintained too, so probably not the kind of vintage you’ll need to throw money at in the short term, which is good to know.
