How could I continue with castle Sundays without featuring the Belgian castle of legendary designer and art/antiques dealer Axel Vervoordt. Kasteel van ’s-Gravenwezel dates back to the 12th century and represents Axel’s style to its core – minimalist and appear seemingly untouched over time. Axel has perfected the ability to create environments that look found, not made. It is earthy, warm, textured, worn and about as magical as a castle can get.

Subtle yet sophisticated, considered and custom. Another stunning property, a 3-storey Washington D.C. row house by interior designer Jeremiah Brent. The stone is stunning, the staircase sinuous and the sense of home enticing.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend then it helps if it’s somewhere stylish like this art gallery by Paris-based interior design firm Batiik Studio.

“The success of d’Estaville is an architectural response which suits contemporary living yet respects the significance of this Heritage Victoria listed dwelling. Contemporary design, including new furniture and lighting softens the grand scale of the original home and creates spaces which are comfortable and intimate.”

Sophisticated, über stylish and sympathethic with its rich heritage retained. And what’s lurking in the garden? Why an old air raid shelter converted to a wine cellar! d’Estaville in the Melbourne suburb of Kew by NTF Architecture.
