Step inside this stunning Georgian restoration

With careful and considerate planning and decorating, this Georgian house was restored to its former glory by the current owners, showing off its period features and fittings. In the living room, gilt mirrors and antique side tables frame the view to the garden, reinforcing the room’s Georgian symmetry.

These mirrors were sourced from English Looking Glasses, and the side tables are from Woburn Abbey Antiques Centre.

The subtle cabinetry, classic range cooker and deep butler sink all reflect the history of this property, while the modern breakfast bar and open-plan layout give this kitchen a contemporary twist.

For traditional cabinetry like this, head to Plain English, and for modern accessories like the acrylic bar stools, go to Ligne Roset.

A similar colour palette was used in the dining room as it was in the living room, to link the rooms visually.  Large sash windows allow light to flood the room accenting the dark-wood furniture and metallic accessories.

For similar paints, head to Zoffany, and for beautiful artwork like this go to Rob Pepper.

The traditional features of this Georgian property were carefully restored to bring out their exquisite delicacy.  Features like this classic cornicing and panelled doors can be found all over the house, and really add depth and history to each room.

With double-aspect views over the extensive grounds, the main bedroom is flooded with natural light throughout the day.  The colour scheme is kept neutral to reflect this, and furniture is kept classic and simple with a contemporary twist.

This modern take on a four-poster bed can be found at Orchid, and has been accessorised by the fake fur throw from Toile de Jouy.

The light-filled upper landing is a natural spot for displaying treasured works of art, led to by an impressive grand staircase.

For a sculpture like this, go to Carol Peace.

Each rooms is given character by being painted a different colour, while maintaining a neutral palette throughout the house. This teenager’s bedroom is given a flash of colour with fluorescent strip lights and a bright red table lamp.
