Amagical world

A Texan home built 25 years ago has entered a new chapter – one that focuses on getting different generations of family together in spaces that are convivial and full of character

Architect Nancy Gouldstone’s passion for historic properties was given the ideal outlet when she bought a Grade II-listed Georgian townhouse

The designer, writer and presenter shares the cosy, welcoming colours, lighting and textures that are part of her signature look

Drawn by the peaceful setting and history of the property, Alison Elliott and her husband, James Sampson, have lovingly improved their elegant Victorian townhouse

Combining good looks and practicality, this large family-friendly space provides the perfect spot for chilling and enjoying film nights
