1935-1936. Architects: Leslie H Kemp and Frederick E Tasker in collaboration with the local builders, Cyril and Stanley Morrell.
The house is based on the architects' winning design for the Daily Mail Ideal Home Exhibition in 1934, which was exhibited in a setting titled 'Village of Tomorrow' and is one of only two known examples in the UK.
Listed as a Grade Il property.
A remarkably well-preserved Art Deco house in South London has been saved from demolition, after an urgent intervention by C20 Society and the rare use of a Building Preservation Notice (BPN).
The property, that remains relatively untouched, was owned by the same family for more than 60 years until it was recently sold.
