Do you remember the 1964 House For Sale in London that we scooped last week? Today we have another one. It’s much cheaper and I can say has a higher dose of both modernism and minimalist design. Designed and built in 1967 by architect Colin Huntley, this beautiful three-bedroom terrace house has been highlighted in the famous Buildings of England series.

The house has been under intensive remodeling by STUDIO Blueboat who had the mission to make the living-room/dining-room larger and to move the kitchen into a specially designed zinc, steel and oak extension. Featuring a small courtyard garden at the front and a larger enclosed garden at the rear, the house makes it easy for those that want to live “close to nature”.

On the inside, everything looks perfect, lined up, with the right colors and large glasses to allow the sun rays inside. The best of them all, I think it’s the open-up living-room, with the large couch and the white walls. What do you like the most? Oh and I forgot. That house is for sale, for £325,000.

Though looking at the interior picture it doesn’t look like a house built in 1964, that’s when the renowned architect Neave Brown built it. Part of a five houses terrace in Dartmouth Park, London, where the community means everything, the three-storey building has two bedrooms - one of them with direct access to the gardens, a shower room and a utility room at the ground floor. On the first floor there is an entrance hall, a bathroom, an 8 sqm terrace with a view over the gardens and newly installed kitchen. There’s also the second floor with a master bedroom and a 19 ft reception that offers a stunning view over the outside gardens.

The think that doesn’t attract me very much is the staircase. Is it just me or that thing is so tight that you should have more than two glasses of wine? However the most stunning thing is the way this house blends with the outside scenery. Everything is natural and well contrasted. The new owners of the house had worked with engineering firm Max Fordham to get the new systems up so that they don’t ruin the original design. Located on Winscombe Street in London, the house is for sale for £925,000.
