Take a tour around a Rock'n'Roll Edwardian mansion

Home office

The original and pretty rare Edwardian fireplace was almost replaced by something more modern but thankfully it stayed and was complemented by a Mies van de Rohe chair and the stunning Bauhaus curved desk.

 

Eclectic hallway

A mix of design and styles really works in this room thanks to the simple palette; blue and white. The mirrored sideboard, which looks like it's a mosaic.

 

Lazy living room

The large skull artwork might not be to everyone's taste but it makes a powerful style statement - plus it's by Damien Hirst! The dark plum walls are off-set by plum and gold leaf-motif wallpaper, with the wall above the dado rail kept white to ensure the colour isn't too overbearing. The circular retro sofa and round coffee table add a sociable aspect to the main living room. 

 

Bedroom furniture

The bedroom is an oasis of calm with a touch of Art Deco style. The soft latte/grey walls provide the perfect backdrop for a few choice pieces of furniture, such as the French-style gold and white chair, the simple bedside cabinet and luxe lamp.


 

Sleek wet room

We've got a touch of the green-eyed monster after seeing this wet room. The double shower contains a marble bench at either end so the owners can bathe hammam style!

 

Living room

A room with a view and a place to chill out. The large mirror reflects the light from the window, and the chaise longue is an alternative to a compact sofa as it's big enough for two. The 'LOVE ME' sign is a reminder of a daily mantra.
