Property Description
Situated in South London, in the Borough of Lambeth, is Gleneagle Mews; a cul-de-sac off Ambleside Avenue. The Mews contains 13 properties used for residential purposes. It is located on the site of an original Mews but has been re-developed to a degree that it no longer contains any surviving Mews properties.
The Mews is part of the Streatham High Road/ Streatham Hill Conservation Area.
The two storey properties have plain brickwork facades and roofs hidden behind parapet walls, surrounded by a tarmacadam road surface with restricted parking and no garages.
Everchanging Nature
The original purpose of the Mews was to provide stable/ coach house accommodation for the main houses on the surrounding streets but nowadays they are used primarily for residential purposes.
Before and since 2003 there have been many planning applications made for alterations to the properties within the Mews, the most notable being; the change of use to residential from workshops, loft conversions, demolition of existing garages and additional storeys. The properties were rebuilt in 1987.
