Property A Victorian terraced house spread over three floors in Dulwich, south London, with 10 rooms, including 5 bedrooms, kitchen and dining area, living room, reception room, and 2 bathrooms.
The leather chair was a find at a Chiswick auction house. It originally came from a bank in Belgium.
1/9 Living room
The rug is from IKEA
2/9 Kitchen
Although narrow, this galley-style kitchen is packed with storage, including cupboards and drawers. The stone worktops add a luxurious feel to the white, streamlined look.

3/9 Kitchen-diner
The ground floor was designed to create a continuous space from the living room, through to the dining area and kitchen, and out of the folding floor-to-ceiling aluminium doors into the back garden. The kitchen itself is the closest to the original minimal designs for the house, with lots of storage.
The cabinet carcasses were from IKEA, then laminated with Formica. For a similar mixer tap, see the range at Bulthaup
4/9 Dining room
The vintage church chairs add a rustic element to this modern dining area. The owner has adorned the walls with her own artwork for a contemporary look.

The bathroom furniture is from Bathstore.com, and the mirror is from Crystal Palace Antiques
6/9 Hallway
Tongue-and-groove panels add depth to the space and the hallway is brightened by the ice-white walls and ceilings.

7/9 Bedroom
A bedroom decorated in floral wallpaper, in soothing soft green and gold tones, has a calming atmosphere.
The bed and bedside drawers are from IKEA. The wallpaper is from the Dennis Hall collection at Cole & Son
8/9 Bedroom accents
The glass-fronted cabinet, originally part of a shop fitting, is from a junk shop in Maidstone. It plays off the vintage feel of the reproduced chair and oval repainted mirrors.

9/9 Conservatory
