A truly exceptional two bedroom, two bathroom home, offering a rare opportunity to acquire one of Putney’s most distinctive and beautifully conceived properties. Originally created as a private music studio and later transformed into a striking contemporary residence, this is a house that feels entirely individual, meticulously designed, filled with natural light, and unlike anything else currently available locally.

Built at the end of January 1923 as a semi-detached addition, the building was commissioned for the cellist and composer Cedric Sharpe (1891–1978) as a dedicated studio. After changing hands twice, it was purchased by the current owners in July 2005, who undertook extensive renovation and remodelling under the guidance of the acclaimed architectural practice Pringle Richards Sharratt, successfully reimagining the space as a unique and highly functional home for modern living.

The home’s unique open-plan arrangement creates an impressive sense of volume and flow, with light pouring through the accommodation throughout the day, enhancing both the atmosphere and the feeling of space. There are two well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it ideal for a range of buyers, from professionals and downsizers to those seeking a statement home with real character and provenance.

To the front, a “secret garden” sits discreetly behind a brick wall, planted with semi-tropical greenery and complemented by a bespoke ornamental pool and fountain, offering a peaceful and private setting rarely found in such a convenient location. Off-street parking is available to the side, secured behind a remote-controlled gate, providing both practicality and additional peace of mind. The kitchen has also benefited from recent renewal of most appliances.

Positioned in a highly regarded pocket of Putney, the property is well placed for local shops and amenities, green open spaces, and excellent transport links, with both Putney Station and East Putney Underground Station within easy reach.

A genuinely once-in-a-generation offering, architect-led, rich in history, and entirely unforgettable.
