The Townhouse

Our beautifully present townhouse collection “Futurehome” is one of a kind, and the only build specifically designed to Passivhaus standards in zone 1, London. Together with inspirational architecture and design, these magnificent townhouses were built with diligence and a passion for craftmanship, and are one of Elephant Park prized possession. Whilst keeping with the traditional Victorian aesthetic, these beautiful houses were built with care to ensure they fit into the existing properties and complement the area. By keeping with these traditional aspects, we have managed to build not only a magnificent collection of houses for Elephant Park in Elephant and Castle, but for Lendlease on a global scale.

The Futurehome townhouses are a prime example of blending the old with the new, keeping all the beautiful features of the traditional Victorian house together with some modernised value-added benefits.
