Chelsea Family Home

Positioned on the corner of a pretty South Kensington cobble-stoned street, this traditional, honey-toned brick mews house, edged with Virginia creeper, has been transformed into a light-filled, family home. Set across five floors, the house has been owned by Katharine’s client who hoped to extend the space to accommodate their growing family.

Three years of extensive building works allowed for the creation of a basement, with a feature wine cellar, a new, enclosed garden terrace and an ‘orangery’ style living room and even an additional top floor added to the building. Katharine, and a supporting team of the most talented British craftsmen and women, have created together, a new interior, which embraces classical detailing and luxurious finishes, married with an informal and contemporary feel.
