Pedigree: Built as a family memorial in 1909, this Romanesque church in Greater London has been
transformed into a novel home in which vaulted ceilings, brick walls, and stone arches provide a
handsome backdrop to modern rooms (including an indoor pool with a Jacuzzi and steam room). The
building, which was never consecrated, served as an antiaircraft command center during World War II
and later, due to its amazing acoustics, was used as a recording studio.
