Get under the skin of Clapham’s most amazing homes and discover up close the details that define great design.

With owners with experience in the art world, this Victorian terrace is packed with ideas for curating collections and playing with scale. One grand living room flows into another on the ground floor, with views out to a landscaped garden that makes clever use of a smaller footprint; an open plan kitchen on the lower ground floor leads out to a patio with barbecue area; and upstairs, a hotel-worthy master suite takes up an entire floor, with children’s rooms above.

The owners of this townhouse worked with an interior designer to achieve a home that pairs classic English features with a contemporary twist: think open-plan, Shaker-style kitchen with curved splash backs that mimic the cabinetry, a front room with a clever screened divider to create hallway space where there was none, and a master bedroom with textured built-in joinery and stone-drenched bathroom. The home also features two beautifully designed children’s bedrooms and a basement with gym and playroom.

Fully renovated and extended to create a contemporary space perfect for entertaining within a Victorian terrace, this home’s highlight is its open-plan kitchen-diner with a central courtyard and a sculptural rear extension finished in pale brick. There’s clever use of texture throughout, with limewash effect wall finishes and statement stone surfaces in the kitchen and bathrooms.
