Property Description

Description

Skeel Library is an extraordinary four-bedroom residence, meticulously restored from its original purpose as the 1903 library of Westfield College. Set within the leafy Hampstead Manor enclave, this Grade II listed Edwardian Baroque gem merges timeless architectural grandeur with contemporary refinement and has won multiple awards for its exceptional design.


Originally commissioned for Westfield College—one of the earliest educational institutions for female scientists—the building now stands as one of Hampstead's most distinctive homes. The interior combines restored period features like original oak bookshelves and lead-framed windows with modern luxury living essentials.


Skeel Library is one of the signature properties within Hampstead Manor, a landmark development that thoughtfully combines history, community, and elegance.


Hampstead Manor

Located just a short stroll from Hampstead Village, Hampstead Manor occupies an iconic site rooted in academic and architectural history. At the heart of the development is Kidderpore Hall, built in 1843, and now surrounded by 156 high-quality homes, including newly built residences and converted heritage buildings like Skeel Library.


Skeel Library stands as the crown jewel of Hampstead Manor, the most historically significant and architecturally distinguished residence within the development. Its unique character, provenance, and meticulous restoration make it the pinnacle of the estate.


This development is designed as a landscaped retreat with ancient trees, pathways, and shared gardens. The buildings tell a story of their own—from the college chapel to converted halls and the library—creating a harmonious mix of classic and contemporary living.
