Description
An extraordinary Grade II Listed Gothic Villa originally known as 'The Logs' was built around 1868 to designs by JS Nightingale by the builder Charles Till for wealthy civil engineer and developer Edward Gotto for use as his own residence.
This remarkable home (506.6 sq m/5,453 sq ft) in the same ownership for nearly 40 years sits on an elevated 0.25 of an acre plot on the corner of Well Road at the junction with East Heath Road overlooking Hampstead Heath and forms the central part of this distinctive mansion renowned for its eccentric mix of Gothic and Italianate architecture.
The property has been painstakingly refurbished and extended over a three year period under the auspices of F3 Architecture & Interiors in conjunction with multi-award-winning designer Kelly Hoppen CBE and features a dramatic central staircase in a triple height central hall, a wonderful principal suite overlooking Hampstead Heath which features a bathroom with a giant skylight for a ceiling and benefits from secluded front and rear gardens in addition to secure off-street parking for several vehicles.
Well Road is superbly located directly opposite Hampstead Heath and just 0.3 miles from both the amenities and charm of Hampstead Village. Hampstead Underground Station (Northern Line) is also just 0.3 miles away whilst Hampstead Heath Overground is 0.5 miles away on South End Road.
'The Logs' was historically home to British actor and comedian Marty Feldman, Sam Smith and latterly to another musical celebrity, is unquestionably a truly exceptional residence representing a unique opportunity to purchase a historic Hampstead home reimagined to create a stunning East-meets-West oasis of calm literally abutting 790 acres of North London's iconic Hampstead Heath.

While most people genuinely aim to assist you in finding your next home, despite our best efforts there will unfortunately always be a small number of fraudsters attempting to deceive you into sharing personal information or handing over money. We strongly advise that you always view a property in person before making any payments, particularly if the advert is from a private individual.
