A Scandinavian-Style Pavilion in England Is Listed For $2.1M
Set in a bucolic locale in the English countryside, the sleek 2,519-square-foot property borders a working farm and features a one-acre garden. The work of Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen, c0-founder of Copenhagen's Norm Architects, the single-story home calls to mind the glass-and-steel constructions of iconic midcentury architect Mies van der Rohe.
A long, narrow, flat-roofed pavilion set on a rectangular steel frame, the minimalist home features Siberian larch cladding on the exterior, Dinesen Douglas fir floorboards, and dark gray window frames—giving the residence a distinctively Scandinavian look throughout.
The bright and airy open kitchen enjoys full-height glazing with sliding doors which lead to both the front yard and the backyard garden.
A corridor runs the length of the home, allowing natural light to enter through the floor-to-ceiling windows—providing a wonderful sense of space, extra square footage to enjoy, and beautiful views of the surrounding countryside scenery.
The sitting room looks out over the garden. A recessed open fire with a floating hearth provides warmth during the colder winter months.
The master bedroom has glazed doors leading to both the front and back yards, a walk-in dressing room, and an ensuite bathroom.
The property also comes with a detached self-contained annex with the same Siberian larch cladding. It is adjacent to the main property and could serve as a perfect spot for an office or an in-law suite.
The steel frame and low profile with expanses of glass calls to mind the style of Mies van der Rohe.
The Pavilion House is now being listed by Bedfords for approximately $2,136,000.
