Charming, compact, and just a little crooked, this Arts & Crafts cottage in Hampstead feels a world away from central London. Designed in 1908, it is now Grade II-listed (meaning its historic character is legally protected), but that’s not the most remarkable part of its story.
The house has remained in the same family for over a century, gathering memories of Christmasses past while its original fireplaces, timber beams, and leaded windows remain. When the current owner inherited it, the brief was never to reinvent but to restore. Led by Charlton Brown in close collaboration with interior designer Marion Lichtig, the renovation became an act of careful stewardship.
