Always sophisticated, always stylish. Always beautifully curated with a restrained touch. Always elegant and always covetable. Dipping into the portfolio of a French design powerhouse. A House in Mayfair by Gilles et Boissier.

Dream home alert! Beautiful, big Georgian/Victorian country house set in 140 acres of parkland with formal gardens, a valley garden with rare rhododendron trees and two large lakes. The house’s X-factor is a large, bright and unique Victorian conservatory with 80 year old camellia trees planted within it. Located in Kent. Stonewall Park is available as a location home via JJ Media Group.

I am convinced that if I were ever to visit a castle, a home with details this exquisite that I would probably pass right out. This is truly incredible. Ballinlough Castle, County Westmeath, Ireland has been home to the Nugent family for over 400 years. The 17th century Georgian castle was sensitively refreshed by Todhunter Earle Interiors when the current occupants, a young family, took over the house. The bedrooms have been brightened with large scale wallpapers and fabrics, beds re-dressed and new bathrooms installed. The essence of the traditional Irish castle has been retained, whilst updating the house for modern living.

This stately, elegant home in Old Westbury, New York, was designed by Michelle Gerson who played up the elegance of the architecture and went balls to the wall with it. It is modern, sophisticated and imbued with a glamorous WOW factor room by room. (Photos: Douglas Friedman & Howard W. Christian)
