This is such a handsome house I’d buy it for that alone. Generally speaking, I tend to value interiors over exteriors as it’s lovely to have a pretty house but it is more about what’s going on inside and arguably you’re better off living in the ugly house looking at the pretty one opposite but…
It’s more of a cliffside house really but I fell down an alliterative rabbit hole…. anyway look at this. A Grade II listed property with views over the rooftops below to the sea beyond and after the year we’ve had this seems like the perfect place to be living right now. Come to think of…
Surely the dream first time buy is a two bedroom flat with a south-facing garden, although this isn’t really first time buyer prices, but, be that as it may, it’s a great example of open plan living and squeezing a lot into a small space. Coming in? It’s in Brackenbury Village, in west London (explains…
Oh I had such a good house for you this week. A real mix of yesterday’s post actually so I know you would have loved it. It was all dark and rustic with lots of William Morris velvets… anyway it’s been taken off the market so you can’t see it but just consider a floral…
When we bought our first flat (a two bedroom garden apartment back in 1998 – I won’t tell you what it cost or younger readers will cry) we used to fantasise about buying the flats on the two floors above and creating one huge house. Then the woman on the top floor put hers on…
From the candy pink of stylist Siouxsie Dickens to the pale pink of this week’s Victorian terrace I think we can safely say that pink is gaining ground as the new neutral of choice. Of course, there will always be those who default to a safe grey (and a dark grey will warm and enhance…
I’m excited to show you round this house belonging to fashion stylist Siouxsie Dickens, and also to have discovered a new estate agent with lovely houses to browse. Coming in? It’s on the market with the Unique Property Company for £1,750,000 and has five bedrooms, five reception rooms and two bathrooms. And having that many…
It was a tricky choice this week – between the incredible folly conversion extension which was lovely to look at and the house that might give you some proper tips and ideas for your own spaces. The latter won out. This week. So it’s a three bedroom Victorian terrace in Bath that is on the…
Following on from the interview with Matt Gibberd yesterday, it seemed only right to check in and see if he had any new properties for sale given his comment that, since estate agents were allowed to open up again a few weeks ago, it was “busy, busy, busy”. And indeed there is a slew of…
A lovely example of small space living for you this week – after last week’s eclectic extravaganza. This is a converted coach-house built around 1800 which is now a two bedroom two floor property on the market for £700,000 with The Modern House. Let’s go in through the round window first shall we (anyone around…
