Peter Cook's Hampstead Village home for sale: the satirical comedy star's Grade II-listed Gothic cottage is on the market for £5 million

Satirical comedy legend Peter Cook’s former house in the heart of Hampstead Village is for sale at £5 million.

Behind its Queen Anne façade, the Grade II-listed property has undergone a glamorous revamp and now has three bedrooms and a new roof terrace.

It is said that Cook and his Sixties/Seventies comedy partner Dudley Moore would flesh out ideas for their Pete and Dud sketches in the garden.

It is the perfect spot for a creative session with the magical rear of the property as a backdrop, resembling a folly in the style of Strawberry Hill Gothic.

It was designed by the architect Norman Evill who had worked in the office of Edwin Lutyens.

In Perrins Walk and with charming views, this home is at the very heart of the Hampstead Village lifestyle.

The house is on the market for £5 million through Dexters Hampstead.
