Wotton Road, Gladstone Park, London NW2

Contemporary mixed use property with true creative heritage.

Description
Originally built between the First and Second World Wars as the home of the renowned Handley Page aircraft factory, Wotton Works is an exceptional example of industrial architecture thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. Rich in architectural character and heritage, this remarkable building has been meticulously transformed by architects o'Hagan and Quinn through an extensive renovation completed between 2020 and 2022, creating one of North West London's most distinctive contemporary homes.

Behind a discreet gated entrance and private driveway lies an extraordinary blend of history, craftsmanship and modern design. The architecture celebrates the building's industrial origins, preserving its exposed steel structure, original Crittall windows, raw brickwork and polished concrete finishes, while introducing elegant, light-filled interiors that combine warehouse scale with exceptional comfort and sophistication.
Extending to approximately 12,689 sq ft, Wotton Works offers an exceptionally rare combination of luxurious residential accommodation and highly versatile creative workspace. At its heart is an outstanding five-bedroom duplex penthouse of approximately 5,711 sq ft, thoughtfully arranged across two floors with expansive open-plan living and entertaining spaces designed to maximise volume, light and flow. Two generous south-facing roof terraces provide a wonderful extension of the living space, enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding Victorian rooftops towards the London skyline.
The principal suite is a private sanctuary, complemented by a dressing room, study and day room, while the remaining bedroom accommodation provides flexibility for family life and guests alike. Throughout, carefully considered design, bespoke detailing and high-quality materials create interiors that are both striking and effortlessly liveable.

A defining feature of the property is its spectacular triple-height internal courtyard, accessed via an impressive automated roller door from the private driveway. Flooded with natural light from an expansive roof lantern and designed around a dramatic living wall, this remarkable space provides secure parking for multiple vehicles, EV charging provision and an unforgettable architectural centrepiece that seamlessly connects the residential and commercial elements of the building.

Complementing the penthouse are two substantial self-contained creative spaces, including an impressive live/work studio and a separate studio, offering exceptional flexibility for architects, designers, artists, production companies or those seeking an inspiring home with integrated business accommodation. The building has also established an enviable reputation as a sought-after location for film, television and photography, having hosted productions and campaigns for many internationally recognised brands, further underlining its unique architectural appeal.

Sustainability has been thoughtfully integrated into the building's design, with 162 rooftop solar panels, wet underfloor heating and modern mechanical ventilation systems complementing its architectural integrity and ensuring it performs as impressively as it looks.

Location
Situated moments from the open green spaces of Gladstone Park and within easy reach of Brent Cross, Hampstead and excellent transport connections into Central London, Wotton Works occupies an increasingly sought-after location that continues to benefit from significant investment and regeneration. It is a property of remarkable provenance, exceptional scale and genuine versatility - equally suited as an extraordinary private residence, a creative headquarters, or a unique combination of both.
