The Househunter

Taking a virtual stroll round a property on the market, to see how it might inspire our own places and spaces.

This week we’re off to a very elegant house in Maidenhead, Berkshire, which is firmly in the affluent commuter belt for those who aren’t familiar with these parts. It’s a house that wouldn’t look out of place in the south of France and I can’t decide if that would be uplifting when you came home, or annoying!

A reminder that we’re not here for the price (£2,500,000 - well you might be, in which case let us know when you’re unpacking and we’ll be round for tea) but for the inspiration. It’s a big, expensive house, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t got issues that won’t relate to the rest of us. Even large houses have small rooms, and it can be as hard to arrange a huge space to flow well as a small one (new post on that coming soon). If you didn’t catch my recent post on how to make a small room look bigger, it’s here.
