Georgian Farmhouse, Devon
A Carpenter Neave project, we were given a brief to instil warmth and colour into this Grade II listed family home, whilst simultaneously avoiding too much “fluff”, our client’s rather apt description for fussy details.
But a stone’s throw from the iconic beach at Bantham, whilst also nestled in Devon’s undulating hilly countryside, this multi-functional property needed to be classically elegant for entertaining but also to be able to cope with a cornucopia of seafaring teenagers, muddy dogs and messy cooks. As with most real homes, this house will continue to evolve over time and we look forward to seeing it embellished with more artwork, more layers - and of course the odd bump & scrape!
