Moran House was a finalist in Grand Designs Awards 2010, having
been extensively rebuilt after an exacting project, overseen by one
of London's leading boutique architectural practices. It is a
sensational family house of 4187 square feet/389 square meters with
a 92' garden, state-of-the-art technological innovations,
first-class contemporary finishes and a superb layout. It is
situated close to Wandsworth Common and excellent transport
links.
AND Architects successfully applied for Grand Designs best
remodelling property for 2010 (an Industry award that the
professional services can apply for). There were over 500
individual applications from Architects last year. Moran House was
successfully selected to the last 6 and became a finalist. The
awards were held at The Excel Centre in May 2010.
During the rebuild Moran House saw the entire rear extension
demolished in order to make way for the basement excavation. Moran
House has been defined by the twin essentials of contemporary
design - light and space. AND Architects worked with Energist UK to
ensure that sufficient high value insulation was installed
throughout the building during reconstruction to enable the large
amounts of German Schuco glazing to be installed and still pass the
demanding SAP ratings. Since completion the imposing semi detached
Victorian building is very much at ease in the 21st Century. On the
ground floor the Victorian architectural integrity has been
maintained, two large interconnected reception rooms offer formal
entertaining/living areas that benefit from Christopher Wray
lighting solutions, matching fire places, and 4 bespoke
factory-built book cases. The rear of these rooms offers a glimpse
of what lies behind - with views to the kitchen and down towards
the basement.
The kitchen is entirely Miele appointed; fully integrated, it
incorporates double height fridge, larder and freezer, dishwasher,
two conventional ovens, induction hobs recessed into Silestone work
tops and a high-volume island extractor. Also incorporated into the
kitchen is HD-ready digital TV cabling with surround sound, German
manufactured wet under-floor heating. Schuco sliding doors give
access to the garden. The lighting is controlled via a Lutron
system.
From the kitchen you can descend into a wonderful family room
measuring over 44ft in length and this family room offers great
versatility and direct access up into the garden. Wet under-floor
heating is incorporated into the entire basement. Wide board oak
flooring has been laid, and the room is equipped with fully
integrated HD-ready digital TV cabling with surround sound. Again
lighting is Lutron. A study lies off the family basement area. The
forward basement areas incorporated off the lower hall offer living
space for a nanny - a large double bedroom with its own front door
access, built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom. The plant room
is also contained in the forward areas of the basement. With access
directly from the kitchen and the family basement room, the garden
area incorporates a decked terrace leading onto a long lawn area
surrounded by Jackson Jakcured fencing.
The upper parts of the house similarly contain architectural
surprises on a par with the best in London. Of the five bedrooms,
three have en-suite facilities including a generous guest suite
overlooking the garden. Two further bedrooms share a fantastic
family bathroom that incorporates some clever child friendly ideas.
There is a dedicated upstairs laundry room with a large porcelain
Belfast sink and airing cupboards.
However, the best has been saved until last. The well-being of the
home owner was paramount to the design brief and the new owners can
look forward to a penthouse apartment rivalling luxury anywhere in
the world. Extensive views of London can be had from the 18' x 16'
master bedroom, which has access via sliding doors to a roof
terrace. The master bedroom is equipped with Bose surround sound,
HD-ready digital TV cabling, air-conditioning (both cooling and
heating) and Lutron lighting. It is complemented by a large
double-height dressing room with ample bespoke wardrobes. The
adjoining master bathroom is also fully air-conditioned (both
cooling and heating), has under-floor heating, a dual-end
freestanding bath, double showers, dual sinks, Italian ceramic
tiling, floating vanity cabinet and ceiling speakers.
Wandsworth Common provides a wide variety of sporting and leisure
activities. There is a keep-fit course, cricket pitches,
running/cycling tracks and a tennis club. For nature lovers there
is a beautiful pond and wooded area bursting with wildlife. The
common has also recently been equipped with a large re-modelled
children's playground. There is a strong cafe and restaurant scene
on Bellevue Road including one of London's top restaurants - Chez
Bruce, and further specialist shops, bar/restaurants and boutiques
on nearby Northcote Road, plus a large Waitrose just around the
corner. The whole area provides an excellent choice of schools in
both State and private sectors. Transport facilities are superb
with fast direct train and tube services to both The West End and
The City available close by at Wandsworth Common and Balham
stations, whilst both Kings Road and the A3 are a short drive away.
