About The Glass House London

What activities work well in your space? Our home is ideal for film shoots, photography, music videos, commercials, and branded content thanks to its light-filled, versatile interiors and striking architectural features. The open-plan kitchen and dining space also works beautifully for workshops, private dining experiences, product launches, and creative gatherings. The landscaped garden and glass extension provide a unique setting for editorial shoots and outdoor filming. What is the layout of the space and how can different areas be used? Ground Floor: Open-plan kitchen/dining area (10m x 4m) with a marble island, breakfast bar, and south-facing glass extension - perfect for cooking shoots, entertaining scenes, or large crew setups. Front room (5m x 4m) with marble fireplace, piano, and designer furniture - ideal for interviews, lifestyle shoots, or performance scenes. Glass box extension (3.5m high, cantilevered over a pond) with sliding doors onto the terrace - excellent for dramatic visuals and natural light. Used a lot in music videos and party scenes. Garden: Landscaped with architectural planting, a pond, and seating areas - perfect for fashion shoots, brand campaigns, or tranquil outdoor scenes. First Floor: 3 bedrooms and a bathroom with a freestanding cast-iron bronze bath - suitable for styled lifestyle shoots, dressing rooms, or overnight storage if required. Basement: Available for crew storage and equipment. What unique features or amenities does your space have? Architect-designed glass extension that appears to float over a pond, offering a rare and cinematic backdrop. 3.5m high ceilings and south-facing orientation flooding the interiors with natural light all day. Rotating disco ball, log burner, and modern design accents that add personality and versatility. Marble fireplace, piano, and mid-century designer furniture for characterful set dressing. Landscaped garden with fruit trees, pond, and outdoor seating areas. Practical amenities including free on-street parking, basement storage, and flexible room access for crews. History of the Space This large detached Victorian home in Forest Hill has been thoughtfully reimagined by an architect, blending classic period character with bold, modern design. The centerpiece is the striking 3.5m-high glass box extension, which cantilevers over a pond and floods the interiors with natural light. Over the years, the space has evolved into a sought-after filming and photography location, offering both dramatic architectural features and warm, stylish interiors.
