crystal palace terrace


Very old, very tatty... a small listed building in Crystal Palace. With help from Bromley Councils' Heritage Department, a scheme was agreed to both save this little gem, and bring it firmly - but sympathetically, into the twenty-first century. The structure was stabilised and repaired with period correct materials, what could be saved was recycled, and what had been destroyed, re-built with great care and attention to detail. 

The finished house has one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen / dinning area, a reception room (with original fireplace) and a basement utility room and loo... all clad in English Oak.
