Colorful Furniture in a Historic English Cottage

This three-story house is located close to the city center of Frome, a small English town in Somerset. The late Victorian home was recently lovingly renovated and features cottage-style interiors with wooden beams and colorful furnishings.

The home looks pretty modest from the outside, but when you step inside, you’re greeted by cheerful spaces where hand-crafted materials, textiles, and bright colors are combined to create comforting spaces.

The base of the interior rooms is warm and historic, with solid floorboards that run underfoot and slim timber beans that are thought to be a byproduct of shipbuilding.

The living room features a large sash window with its original shutters.

The room is centered around a fireplace with decorative tiling flanked by bookshelves and a custom cupboard.

The open-plan kitchen and dining room are the heart of the home. A soft blue built-in bench provides plenty of seating space, and the space under the stairs is used for storage, closed off by bold orange-red doors.

The kitchen cabinets are the same color as the cabinets under the stairs. They are paired with a warm wooden worktop and Mexican tiles sourced from Columbia Road’s Milagros.

The house has three bedrooms. On the first floor lies a guest room/office and a nursery.

The top floor is home to the master bedroom. The slanted ceilings with timber beams create a cozy ambiance.

The house is listed for £375,000 at Inigo.
