This Grade II* listed house was designed by Colin Lucas of Connell, Ward and Lucas, and completed in 1938.
The property had deteriorated significantly due to persistent lack of maintenance by a previous owner. Avanti Architects was commissioned by its new owner in 2000 to design and specify a full scheme of repair, upgrade and alteration works.
The house had already undergone alteration prior to listing, with the addition of an integral swimming pool and in-filling of a roof terrace to provide a new master bedroom suite. These alterations were rebuilt with the approval of English Heritage in a manner sympathetic to the original design, and Listed Building Consent was granted. Work was completed in 2003, providing a state-of-the-art 21st century home that can once again be recognised as an outstanding building of its period.
In June 2005, Avanti Architects received the inaugural RIBA Conservation Award for their refurbishment of 66 Frognal.
