Also to address the fact that the home was extremely cold. This project involved a complete redesign of the property’s rooms, including updating furnishings and styling, refreshing paint and wall colour schemes, adding bespoke panelling to create depth and drama in the typically Victorian high-ceilinged rooms, and updating flooring and window treatments throughout. All work completed to emphasise all original features and remain sympathetic to it’s heritage.
