A novel approach
A thing of extraordinary symmetry and beauty, this modernist property takes inspiration from Simon Mawer’s The Glass Room, a fictional tale about art, architecture, and desire
This is a story about light and space, about precision and passion. It’s a story that will make you forget everything you think you know about developers. For the Bath brothers are different. “The architect, John Allan of Avanti, and I didn’t start out on the best terms,” Tejit Bath says wryly. “He suspected we were going to do crude things to this wonderful place. Now we’re the best of friends; he’s so proud of what we’ve achieved.”
When the brothers bought Grade II-listed Cherry Hill 10 years ago it was a rundown family home, albeit one at the heart of the prestigious Wentworth Estate, a glorious setting around an hour’s drive southwest of central London.
