Property description
This splendid newly converted three bedder resides in what was once the Lee Green Telephone Exchange. Originally constructed in 1909, the building was designed by the renowned architect Leonard Stokes. Stokes’ original architectural drawings have been used to guide the process of restoration and repair, as well as informing the design of contemporary additions. The flat enjoys an exceptional finish, boasting expansive living spaces and solid oak herringbone Parquet flooring throughout. The kitchen features brushed steel worktops, ceramic tiled islands, Big Blue range cooker and striking cold cathode tube lighting. All three bedrooms are doubles and bathrooms feature Crittall steel glazed screen, oversized shower enclosures and ceramic lighting. Further amenities include a private courtyard and handy cycle store. The telephone box taking pride of place in the front forecourt is an original K6 Jubilee Kiosk public call box designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and is Grade II listed, as is the building itself.
