A stunning centre piece
One of Pamela’s favourite aspects of her new home’s interiors is the attractive brick feature walling around the Stovax woodburner in the living room, which adds real character alongside the oak beams. Surprisingly, this design detail wasn’t originally part of the plan. “I came back one day and our builder, Tom, had just done it.
It was totally spur of the moment”, says Pamela. “Originally it was just going to be plastered, but I loved how it looked, so we decided to keep it. It’s beautiful and really highlights the skill and high standard of workmanship Tom and his team delivered on our project.”
