A modern home in Wimbledon, SW19 - Telegraph

You can just imagine Wimbledon pros finding welcome post-match refuge in 20 Lancaster Gardens, which sits in a peaceful cul-de-sac a few minutes' walk from the All England Lawn Tennis Club.

From the top-floor bedrooms, you can see the tennis club's familiar white domes. From the garden, you can hear the thwack of balls and the roars from the crowd. And Lleyton Hewitt always rents the house a few doors down the road.

But inside is pure escapism. Among its 6,200sq ft of light-filled, open-plan rooms, there's a vast leisure-themed basement with a gym and separate games room (including pool table and air hockey) that doubles up as a home cinema. The rooms are so vast, you could easily cohabit the space without seeing the other person.
