PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Janet Carroll Estate Agents are thrilled to present this wonderful opportunity to own Aghanloo, a stunning turnkey Art Deco home, constructed as one of the earliest on Kill Avenue. This architectural gem c.250 sqm is notable for its conservation worthy design.

Built in 1947 by architect Anthony Johnson, Aghanloo is one of two of its kind on this road, embodying the Art Deco style that emerged from the Modern Movement in architecture. Conceptualised by Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen during a 1922 design competition for the Chicago Tribune Headquarters, Art Deco rejected historical precedents by embracing new construction technologies.

Art Deco homes are distinguished by their sharp-edged linear designs, high ceilings, and abundant natural light—a hallmark showcased by Aghanloo's expansive sitting room window, nearly 8 meters wide. The current owners possess a coloured copy of the original architectural hand drawing of the house.

Purchased by the current owners in 1987, the property underwent a significant transformation in 2006 with the addition of a fifth bedroom suite, expanding the living area. Set on a third of an acre, Aghanloo also features ample front parking for over five cars.

In 2023, planning permission was secured for a 135-square-meter bungalow with separate road access to Kill Lane. Designed to complement Aghanloo's Art Deco style, the bungalow will be subtly integrated into the landscape and hardly visible from Kill Lane.

Aghanloo is not just architecturally significant; it's a spacious and inviting family home, renowned as the go-to gathering spot for the current owners' children's friends, hosting numerous get-togethers and events over the years.

Facing southeast, Aghanloo benefits from ample daytime sunlight year-round. Even in winter, the low sun illuminates the rear of the house, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. In the summer, the home exudes a "Spanish Villa" vibe, with large double doors from the kitchen opening onto the expansive deck—ideal for relaxation and leisure.
