Scaled Down

This exquisite home in a secluded part of St Albans in Christchurch is sited on a narrow piece of land and it comprises a number of separate parts. The original house dates back to 1880 and in more recent times it has been sensitively adapted and added to, to provide flexibility and more living space.

At the end of the garden stands a studio and garden shed with pleasantly arched openings that mirror an arched doorway in the main building. The combination of house, garden and studio on a beautifully landscaped private section has been skilfully resolved.
