Built decades ago by an inventive figure using salvaged materials, reportedly including old film-set pieces, they are a riot of curving walls, quirky chimneys, wavy rooflines and fantastical detail, like cottages from a children’s tale made real. They charm everyone who finds them. Kingsbury is the unassuming suburb that quietly shelters a row of houses from a storybook.”
