Athlone House information


Caen Wood Towers (south view) circa 1900.

Athlone House, formerly known as Caen Wood Towers, is a large Victorian house in Highgate, north London, England.

Built around 1872, it was designed by Edward Salomons and John Philpot in an intricate style, particularly as to shape and brickwork, blending Dutch and classical influences. It lies on the northern edge of Hampstead Heath, from which it can be seen.

It was home to several important industrialists until the early 1940s, when it was acquired by the Royal Air Force. It was later a National Health Service home for people with dementia until 2003, when it was left derelict. In 2016, Russian oligarch Mikhail Fridman bought the house and restored it for use as a modern family home.
