Set next to Highgate Cemetery, London’s greatest Victorian cemetery, the house was designed by the architects Nick Eldridge and Piers Smerin.
Its generous proportion of living to bedroom space includes terraces and balconies, and a sizable sliding glass rooflight enabling the top floor to become an openair court.
The project won a Royal Institute of British Architects Award in 2009 and a Custom Electronic
Design and Installation Association Award in 2008.{eldridgesmerin.com}

I would not want to live next to the creepiest cemetery in the world,no matter how fascinating.
I agree – it’s kinda “GRIMM”
