Hillier Road is a desirable residential location in South West London, surrounded by several top private and public schools and a number of Commons. The area is known to offer a countryside feel within central London; the ever-famous Kings Road, Sloane Square, and Chelsea.

Hillier Rd is walking distance (200m) from the very popular Northcote Road, a shopping street in Battersea which stretches for over half a mile. It is close to Clapham Junction Station and is the epicentre of the so-called ‘Nappy Valley’. Its name was given because of the young, affluent, productive demographic and the road covering a culverted river (the River Falcon), giving it a low-lying position between the two commons of Wandsworth and Clapham.

The building is slightly wider than the typical Victorian house and needs modernisation, with four bedrooms and the cellar spreading over 1800 sq. ft (160 sq. m). We have demolished every indoor wall, replaced almost every piece of its original structure, and built a new kitchen extension and a massive basement under the entire house: new wiring, a glass roof extension, and two indoor staircases leading to the cellar. The layout of the stairs ensures there is no “underground” feeling whilst in the basement and allows a natural flow from the upper floor to the basement, thus achieving the maximum usage of the rooms below.
