WIMBLEDON FAMILY HOUSE

The ground floor of the property has been opened-up as far as possible so as to maximise the illusion of space and daylight. The two original reception rooms have been combined to form a single, grand living room with a central large opening leading to the entrance hall.

Victorian-style plaster cornices and ceiling roses, painted timber sash windows with folding shutters, painted timber architraves and moulded skirtings, and a new limestone fire surround have been installed in keeping with the period of the house. The Dinesen douglas fir floorboards have been laid on piped underfloor heating.

Sofa - That sofa is beautiful. Are you able to say where it's from? And does it curve around in one piece?

Hi - I tweaked a design from a traditional chesterfield sofa as I couldn't find an L shape version. I also wanted the seating to be deeper. The Sofa & Chair Company based in Acton made this for us and indeed all the upholstery for this project. I would strongly suggest you use a recommended upholstery company as they are investment pieces and it will give you peace of mind rather than taking a leap of faith. I hope this helps? Warm regards, Rebecca.

Ps - the sofa is in two pieces, connected underneath. The frame was mitered at an angle from the corner piece which is only visible when you lift the base cushion sections up as I wanted it to appear seamless.
