Small wonder

JANICE TALKINGTON AND PAUL BATES FELL IN LOVE WITH A COMPACT COTTAGE OVERLOOKING THE VILLAGE GREEN

RENOVATING AND EXTENDING A COMPACT FLINT COTTAGE MEANT A BIGGER HOME FOR PAUL AND LUCI STADEN, WITH THE ADDED JOY OF THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH DOWNS ON THEIR DOORSTEP

A CHANCE CONVERSATION PROMPTED ANNE AND JOHN TO EMBRACE A RURAL LIFESTYLE AND TRANSFORM A FORMER VICARAGE

Taking on and reviving a special Victorian home she had long admired gave Jess Shah space to honour the antique and vintage pieces passed down through her family

Moving to the countryside to be nearer to their homeware shop, Laura and Will Mellor indulged their love of craftsmanship to renovate a Georgian cottage

BY USING HIS INTERIOR DESIGN KNOW-HOW AND AN UNEXPECTED TAILORED LOOK, NIGEL HUNT HAS ELEVATED THIS SIMPLE COTTAGE AND GIVEN IT A SENSE OF SPACE
