Wealden Times | WT170 | April 2016 | Garden supplement inside

Above: The master bedroom suite, with comfy seating area at one end,
has magnificent views from every window. An adjoining door leads to the
ultimate en suite – or rather, to a staircase up to a huge, top-floor bathroom
Right: Classic, complementary decor in the en suite wet room
a beautiful sun-drenched morning room. Having fallen
in love with some quite stunning Nina Campbell duck
egg blue crewelwork curtains in a magazine, that was the
starting point. When teamed up with ivory walls, a very
pretty marble fireplace and a contemporary chandelier,
she really has created an elegant and serene space.
A formal dining room also leads off the hall and is
painted in Farrow & Ball Hay – a dark yellow teamed
with blood red damask curtains. You can imagine how
fabulous this room looks at night. Centre stage is a
magnificent fireplace. All the fireplaces in the house were
sourced from Chesney’s in London. They worked hard to
ensure all the fireplaces chosen were appropriate to the
style of each room and then came down to oversee the
installations. The made-to-measure over-mantle mirror
is from Joseph McCarthy, a company in the Pantiles
in Tunbridge Wells, that hand-makes frames copied
from its archive of historically important pieces.
