This single-storey glass-fronted property was rebuilt from an Sixties bungalow. It consists of two corriors, one with a bedroom wing, and the other with living areas and a playroom. Glass doors, which slide fully open, create the feeling that the outside and inside are one.


Dining room
Next to the kitchen, the dining table and breakfast bar create a sociable area for the family to congregate. Statement artwork and dining chairs in primary colours offset the stark white walls and limestone flooring.
The artwork is by Frank Beanland, and the dining chairs were from Aram.

Kitchen
The kitchen is positioned so a view of the whole downstairs can be obtained - the playroom, study, dining area and garden. The gloss white surfaces help to bounce light around the narrow room, and create a streamlined look where everything is tucked away.
IKEA have similar pendant lights and the worktops were from Corian.

Living room

Home office
At one end of the living room sits bespoke shelving which doubles up as a home office area for the whole family. An extended shelf acts an unobtrusive desk.
For bespoke shelving, visit our Find a Tradesman tool to locate a carpenter in your area.

Bedroom
The bedroom, which sits at the far end of one of the corridors, looks straight out onto the courtyard. From here, the owners can see into much of the rest of the house, therefore able to keep an eye on the children.
The bedlinen and throw were from Habitat, and the cushions from Monsoon Home.

Bathroom
The white decor in the bathroom is interspersed with vibrant modern artwork and red and yellow accessories.
