A Dark Blue Living Room in a Historic London Home
This beautiful three-bedroom house in London perfectly blends features from the 1880s, when the house was built, with modern additions like glass Crittal doors and a modern landscaped garden.
The Victorian house features a beautiful material palette of oak herringbone floors, brass, and porcelain. This is paired with a beautiful color palette of blue, soft pink, and olive green.
At the front of the house lies a small but charming sitting room where the walls, bookshelves, and the shutters are painted in ‘Hague Blue’ by Farrow and Ball . Georgian-style windows bring in much natural light and add a nice historic touch to the room.
The living room is centered around a gorgeous black fireplace with floral patterned tiles.
A pair of glass Crittall doors separate the living room from the open-plan kitchen and dining room while also letting through light.
The extended kitchen and dining room is a wonderfully bright space thanks to the large sliding glass doors and the two skylights in the gently sloped ceiling.
The teal kitchen cabinets are accented by exposed ply edging and brass pull handles matching the brass tap on the ceramic sink on the island.
The walls in the hallway are painted in ‘Setting Plaster’ by Farrow and Ball. The staircase is painted in ‘Pink Slip’ by Little Greene.
The first floor houses three bedrooms. This room is painted in a lovely olive green shade.
The bathroom features a freestanding oval bath, a walk-in shower, and a teak cabinet by Tikamoon.
At the rear of the garden, a seating area with an L-shaped bench is set beneath a black timber pergola.
The house was listed for £880,000 at The Modern House.
