17th-Century Farmhouse

Nestled in the Surrey countryside, this characterful 17th-century farmhouse stole the hearts of a young family looking to create a forever home. It was particularly important to the owners that, whilst the kitchen felt like an integral part of the home, it was designed to complement the historic property, not mimic it. With its classic, timeless aesthetic Martin Moore’s English collection was the ideal choice. When considering the design for the interior of this 17th-century farmhouse, it was also important to reference the original property by selecting neutral heritage colours.

The cooking zone is a focal point of the kitchen, with a centrally located cooker and mantel perfectly framed by windows for a pleasing symmetrical design. The stylish black range cooker and window frames bring a modern look to the space and contrast strikingly with the subtly veined quartz worktops and cabinetry in hand painted in Martin Moore’s “Pale Vanilla” and “Buttermilk”. Taking advantage of the large windows and natural light, the design unifies the living areas in a seamless, cohesive layout creating a feeling of space and allowing the garden and kitchen to feel closely connected.
