Intoxicating and serene, the ’70s Rêve is a glam rock riff on the sultry vibes and breezy bliss of bohemian life. Restored and reconceived, this lush estate in Ross, California, exudes a balmy calm with a sexy swagger. Earthy and sumptuous, playfully plush, it teems with the effervescent cool of a YSL muse—both ageless and of the moment. A 70’s dream this is!

This is as about as British as it gets. Christopher Hodsoll has a unique ability to create cosy and comfortable spaces out of grand period rooms. As well as being adept at making a modern interior look as if it had been built up over years by a collector.

I’ve dreamt about living in a castle in France or Italy but it appears I need to add Ireland to my list. This home was built in 1870, has 5 bedrooms, is  5,543 sq.ft. and is listed through Christie’s at just over 10M USD. St George’s is a most impressive towered and gabled red-brick Gothic-Revival house. It was built in the late 1870’s designed by George Coppinger Ashlin, one of the leading Irish architects of the 19th century. The description includes things like brass armatures, encaustic ceramic tiled floor, glazed lead panelled glass, chamfered Tudor archway, pink polished marble columns, open timber balustrade, corner turret, conservatory, butler’s pantry, oratory…

A traditional country home in Sussex that is kept bright and fresh with touches of modernity and youthfulness. Designed by Johnston Parke Interiors. This stunning Grade II listed country house was the family home of The Duchess of Cornwall and had a completed revamp in 2019 for a young family who wanted to maintain the character of the building but inject a sense of fun and colour. They moved from Australia with 1 sofa,  a mattress and some art so everything had to be sourced from scratch including antiques.
