A Charming Light Edwardian House with a Tiny Garden

This three-bedroom Edwardian house near Shepherd’s Bush in London has been sensitively renovated, adding a light, neutral color scheme and natural materials. The house features original elements, like the wooden staircase, fireplaces, and original windows. These period features have been paired with contemporary elements that suit perfectly with the historic bones.

The ground floor is home to an open-plan living space running the entire length of the house. With windows in two directions, the space is wonderfully bright, which is enhanced by the white color palette on the walls and ceiling.

Simple white-washed walls and contrasting textured engineered oak floorboards form the perfect base for the interiors. The owners decorated the room, making sure that the sightline from front to back was kept open to maximize the feeling of space.
