About this location
This detached Victorian house is a lived-in family filming location in Beckenham, South London, with dated decor that is often used for shoots looking for an elderly person's house. Original features include a stained-glass front door, patterned tiled hallway, fireplaces and bay windows, alongside traditional living rooms, a book-lined library, a tiny unextended kitchen like a council flat kitchen, and a huge garden. With plenty of space and easy access, the house can look like several different locations at once, suiting TV drama, period and comedy productions, commercials and stills.
