Set in a leafy conservation area in Richmond, this former London coach house has been transformed into an elegant, upscale abode – and it's on the market for £2 million.
The home was completed in 2019 to a design by London-based architects TDO. Occupying the site of a former coach house, it's almost a total new build and adds a modern addition to the traditional architecture of the St Margaret's Estate Conservation Area.

Bathrooms, too, have this fusion, with one boasting a beautiful botanical sink with modern brass taps and mirrors.
Another shower room embraces full industrial style with concrete walls and matte black sink.
