Heath House is a historic mansion on Hampstead Heath. It is Grade II* listed and located on Hampstead's North End Way in the London Borough of Camden.[1] It is located at the highest point upon leaving the capital, about four miles north of Trafalgar Square. The Hampstead War Memorial stands in front of the house.[2]
From 1790 Heath House was the family seat of banker and philanthropist Sir Samuel Hoare, who entertained many notable figures there, particularly writers and poets. The house remained in the Hoare family until it was badly damaged in the Second World War; it was then sold, passing through several families over the decades. As of January 2023, the house is once more empty and awaiting restoration.
