A Modernist Masterpiece Opposite Hampstead Heath

Built in the early 1960s by the pioneering architect James Gowan for furniture designer Chaim Schreiber, Schreiber House remains one of London’s most significant examples of post-war modernism. Set on an elevated site overlooking Hampstead Heath, this Grade II-listed home balances architectural precision with an inviting sense of comfort, making it as liveable today as it was visionary when first conceived.

Behind its striking façade of blue Staffordshire brick, the house opens to a breathtaking double-height reception and dining space flooded with natural light. Vast windows frame leafy views across the Heath, while soaring ceilings and carefully considered proportions create an atmosphere of calm grandeur. Original details are preserved throughout, from the bronze lighting and Muhuhu hardwood floors to the bespoke built-in furniture designed by Schreiber and built in his own workshops.
