Ideally situated in the heart of the golden triangle within easy reach of Gaillac and Albi and 1h15 minutes to Toulouse is this magnificent period property, dating back to the 15th century. As part of an old chateau, this majestic building is currently a private residence alongside a guest house and has a total of 10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. The 3 levels are all accessed via a beautiful inner courtyard and an impressive stone spiral staircase. The galleried landings are of exposed timbers, with half-timbered walls, double or triple mullioned windows and lead-set stained glass windows. The building was restored by master craftsmen over a 4 year period in the 1980s. The stunning 77m² lounge/reception room has impressive beams, exposed stone walls, a monumental fireplace, stained glass mullioned windows and access to the south facing terrace with its 180 degree view of the beautiful surrounding countryside. There is also a 377m² garden just opposite the property which could be accessed from inside the house via an underground passage.
The inner courtyard layout, the yellow gothic-vibin’ kitchen and the terrace with the incredible views….. oh my! For sale via Savills.

This prestigious double fronted Art Deco cream brick beacon of casual regality adorns a fancy suburban street in Moonee Ponds. WOWOWA’s role was akin to a surgeon – preforming open heart surgery, removing the scare tissue of the past renovation and creating a family home that celebrated the playful ornament of the original 1930’s era. The first decision was to mirror the cream & brown brick robustness of the front facade, around the back. A sense of inside outside was crucial to this project. Working around existing bones, the renovation addon reads like an L shaped nugget, but in reality, the living room sits on the base of an existing basement and is largely a reduction more than an alteration & addition.
I am DYING over this renovation. All of my favourite colours in one home (and all in one kitchen no less!). This home is so incredibly unique and vibrant, and that kitchen is one of my all-time favourites. (Photos: Martina Gemmola; Styling: Ruth Welsby)

This chic, contemporary home may look a little museum-like and precious but it is a family home with some really beautiful and bold colours that tone down the seriousness and create a more fun and inviting vibe. I love that combo where the friends of the parents and kids alike are envious and always want to stop by and chill. Designed by Monica Fried. (Photos: Nicole Franzen)

This early 18th century Queen Anne manor house in Norfolk is just overflowing with incredible period details, pretty colours and patterns and all the comforts that must have the owners never wanting to leave. Carlos Garcia is a master at bringing traditional décor into this era. I am such a huge fan of his work. (Photos: Paul Massey)

A country home in Cornwall screams for quintessentially English décor with layers upon layers of colours, patterns, textures and architectural details in abundance. That is just what Mary Graham and Nicole Salvesen of Salvesen Graham did here and it created such an inviting and warm home that could stand the test of time for decades to come. (Photos: Simon Upton)
