About High Sunderland

High Sunderland is a striking Modernist house nestled in woodland within the grounds of Sunderland Hall, a 19th-century estate located between Selkirk and Galashiels in the Scottish Borders. Designed by architect Peter Womersley for textile artist Bernat Klein and his wife Peggy in 1957, the house features an eye-catching combination of clear and coloured glass set within a wooden structure, complemented by interiors adorned with exotic woods and Klein’s bespoke fabrics. This unique property, often likened to "a Mondrian set within a Klimt," presents a noteworthy example of mid-20th-century architecture in the region, making it relevant for those researching planning applications in the area.
