We took this Victorian beauty right down to the studs in this full house renovation, but were able to keep all the bits with character. We added a small addition to the back of the house to give our clients another sitting area and a larger kitchen space; renovated all the bathrooms in the home; and switched out the old windows for new. Once the messy work was done, we were asked to create a colourful and joyful home, so we decorated it with that vision in mind. It’s a whimsical and vibrant mix of old and new elements, that suit this Victorian gem and the family who lives there to a tee.
