THE STORY
Strolling through the exquisite landscaped gardens or relaxing in his beautiful domed drawing room, the owner of this Tavistock House home knows he found somewhere very special to live. Built in a beautiful tower within one of the original buildings, this property is unique in style and set in a wonderful location within Repton Park.
"I love Victorian architecture and was very impressed as soon as I saw the building," he said. "They had not even finished converting it at the time but I knew I wanted to live there."

EXCLUSIVE DEVELOPMENT
The magnificent four-bedroom, six floor home is part of the exclusive, gated Repton Park development. Converted from a tower within the former hospital, the listed property still boasts many of its attractive original features.
"The drawing room is wonderful," said the owner. "This is a lovely, light room, which has double doors leading outside and large windows."
"But it also has a beautiful domed ceiling. This room is a good size and would be ideal for anyone who enjoys entertaining."
|
HOME FOR ENTERTAINMENT
Also perfect for anyone who enjoys entertaining in their home is the dining room, which has a door leading out to the front terrace, enabling guests to wander straight out into the sunshine during the summer months.
The property also has an impressive entrance hall, perfect for welcoming friends as they arrive for a daytime or evening party.
"I travel a great deal and have not had the chance to do a lot of entertaining here but this home would work well for anyone who enjoys holding dinner parties," he said.

BEAUTIFUL HOME
The owner enjoys welcoming guests when he is at home. The layout of the property means those staying can enjoy a sense of seclusion and privacy.
"This is a very unusual home and people really enjoy coming to see it," he said. "As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to buy it."
"It has been very enjoyable owning a property like this and decorating it inside to make it as I wanted it to be."
"The kitchen was designed by me and I have furnished and carpeted the property to my own standards."
He went on: "I am sad to be leaving it but I am sure someone else will enjoy it as much as I have. This is a home that will appeal to someone who is looking for something out of the ordinary."

SETTING THE SCENE
Repton Park is a gated community and features 24 hour concierge/security. Originally Claybury Hospital, Repton Park was sympathetically developed by Crest Nicholson in conjunction with English Heritage and the London Wildlife Trust, converting the original buildings and adding new houses and apartments. Situated in approximately 235 acres of grounds, and with an Esporta Health Club on site, Repton Park is truly a wonderful place to live.
