Tucked away on a small mews in Hampstead, this two-bedroom converted coach house is a remarkably rare early project by the world-renowned architect Norman Foster. It was offered for sale by The Modern House in 2015, for the first time since it was converted in the late 1960s.

Originally built in 1862, the house was extended and remodelled by Norman Foster’s practice in 1968-70. The project architect for the house was Patty Hopkins, who later established the renowned Hopkins Architects with her husband Michael.

It has many of the characteristics that made these architects famous exponents of the High Tech style of architecture, including exposed steel roof trusses, blockwork walls and large expanses of glazing. The house caused great excitement at the time, and was featured on the cover of House & Garden.
