Exterior

Model and actress Angie Hill fell in love with this property after viewing it on a whim - it was originally the set for horror movie A Nightmare On Elm Street. The house is now a clean, relaxing space, with a mix of British inspiration and curvy US style, even down to the kitchen units.

Living room

A wall of shelving for a vast CD and book collection was essential. A staircase was moved and the hallway flanked with an office and children's living room. The living room is now at the back of the property and has a real sense of privacy.

Kitchen archway

The kitchen has a fun, retro feel, thanks to orange work surfaces made of Caeser Stone.

Kitchen-diner

These kitchen units were custom-made - the curved island unit echoes the shape of the room's circular entrance and saves space in a narrow area. The globe-shaped pendant lamps continue the curved theme - find similar at Dwell.

Dining room archway

Splashes of citrus brights achieve a fresh, summer-time look. Prevent an overwhelming look by choosing a single accent colour, and using it sparingly, like on this kitchen counter and dining chairs.

Bedroom

A barre has been fitted in front of the mirror so ballet exercises can be done in front of it.

The bed, with it's sloping headboard, was bought from IKEA - you can find similar at Molteni&C

Bathroom

The owners have played with scale in the bathroom, choosing an oversized bathtub wrapped in stainless steel, wall-to-wall tiles and a large mirror.

Home office

A long counter - made from the same Caeser Stone as the kitchen worktops - replaces a traditional desk in the office, while cabinets hide paperwork and files. A circular opening, like the one between the kitchen and living room, marks the divide between office and hallway without feeling too shut off.

Find a similar circular rug at IKEA.
