Bespoke wardrobes and units were crafted off site. Bespoke kitchen installation.

The existing hand rails on an imposing staircase (a central feature of the house) were expertly stripped and french polished on site.

The ornate wooden flooring was repaired and restored to it's original splendour and sealed carefully to provide a hard wearing floor.
