Glenmore Road House

A new one level home built by the owners on a country site comprised of four bedrooms, three bathrooms, one powder room, two living areas and a generous kitchen with a substantial scullery.

Exterior colours were selected to sit within the lush garden surroundings.

The interior brief was to create a modern elegant country home.

High-angled ceilings allowed the house to have a strong kitchen island top and splashback of black and gold granite with dark oak cabinetry.

Stone basins were selected for the bathrooms and were specific to the wall and floor tiling.

The wallpapers introduced layers of texture to key rooms. The paint scheme was kept to a earthy neutral and colour was introduced by way of the custom designed furnishings.

A Catherine Martin rug bought a rich gold element into the family room.

Specific light fittings were selected for their suitability in key rooms.
