A Bright Extended and Renovated Victorian House in London

On a sought-after street in London’s Clapton area stands this Victorian townhouse with four bedrooms. The current owners have carefully renovated the house, creating open plan space that feel modern while also maintaining the Victorian character of the London house.

Like most Victorian houses in London, the house has been extended in the back to create a large social kitchen space with large windows and skylights to connect the space with the garden.
