A full conversion of a former church into a single residence was unprecedented in London. Throughout this major redevelopment the architectural features were preserved in conjunction with its full redesign and refurbishment. For the design team the emphasis was on reinstating the extraordinary volume in the principle rooms.

The focal point of the house is the magnificent drawing room that boasts 42 ft vaulted ceilings, original stone pillars and oak beams that flank the specially commissioned stone staircase which ascends around the bronze and glass lift.
