Dixcote, North Drive
A characteristic work of Charles Francis Annesley Voysey, with Walter Cave as the executant architect. Built in 1897 of brick and Ham Hill stone dressings. Typical of Voysey's houses is its long and low design, white roughcast exterior, large pitched roof, mullioned windows and broad chimneys. Grade II* listed.
One of a number of large houses near Tooting Bec Common dating from the late C19th/early C20th.
Voysey was a pioneer of the Arts and Craft movement, ploughing his own furrow, and designed numerous distinctive country houses.
