First let’s start with some of the basic history of this renowned Art Deco building.

When built in the 1930’s some of the flats comprised two apartments, a large one for the main occupier and a smaller one for the servant. The flats were advertised with the tag "the servant problem solved". There was also a restaurant, lounge and "guest rooms", as well as seven tennis courts (the former Queens tennis club), a swimming pool and a putting green.

Anyone buying in this building is securing a very affluent and iconic piece of SE23 history.

In the building you experience the original style 1930's lift with Art Deco door and pull across gate which is a lovely feeling. Within the grounds of the development there are allotments. .

The studio benefits from a studio room with a separate kitchen and bathroom.
