Above: Lack of space is no issue in the gorgeous master bedroom ensuite, where a roll top bath sits in the middle of a tiled herringbone<br />

floor, taking in the views over the back garden. Large gold-framed mirrors and brass swan-neck globe lights offer a 1930s vibe<br />

and next to the bed an original fireplace with ornate<br />

cast iron and tiled surround is something to admire.<br />

Back in the landing area we enter the master bedroom, a<br />

cosy space layered with earthy tones, blankets and cushions<br />

bestowing a touch of hygge, in an otherwise fairly minimalist<br />

bedroom. Of course there is a fireplace, this time an exquisite<br />

marble one which Alex has put in. As we move into the<br />

ensuite, I am rendered momentarily speechless taking in the<br />

stunning bathroom for the first time, it’s absolutely enormous!<br />

A gorgeous roll top bath, with has views over the back garden,<br />

sits on the tiled herringbone floor, while the exquisite vanity<br />

unit reveals his-and-hers sinks set in a white marble top. Large<br />

gold-framed mirrors and brass swan-neck globe lights offer<br />

a 1930s vibe and to top it all off there is a walk in shower.<br />

Peeling myself away from the ensuite we go up another<br />

flight of stairs. I start to think this house is never ending<br />

but there is just one final bedroom to see. This one at<br />

the top of the house has privacy and amazing views.<br />

As Alex and I walk back down to the ground floor, I<br />

consider all the work that has gone into this home and I<br />

still can’t quite get my head around how Alex has done it in<br />

a year. But he has and it’s beautiful. He has sympathetically<br />

restored a grand old house, opening it up and making it<br />

work for the future, fulfilling his family’s needs. Subtle<br />

details are everywhere and when you put them all together,<br />

you have a warm and welcoming family home.<br />
