Four-bedroom detached Victorian house near Banstead, Surrey.
1 “Jamie made the table to fit the space”
‘We added a two-storey extension at the back of the house to bring light in and give us a big open-plan kitchen-diner. We found an old chest that Jamie painted black using Annie Sloan chalk paint, which he then also used on the table legs and French doors.’
