AnnaMacthat have a clean, crisp look, but also give the
room character. Phase two of the downstairs
renovation was knocking through to the garage
to create a dining space and a family room, both
of which are linked to the kitchen through large
openings. The dining room also has floor-to-
ceiling glazed doors that lead out to the garden.
One area downstairs that hasn’t received
Rosemary and Justin’s magic touch yet is
the sitting room. ‘We decided to keep it as a
traditional “best room”,’ says Rosemary. ‘We
will get around to doing it up in the future, but
it hasn’t been a priority so far.’ The children’s
rooms and Rosemary and Justin’s own bedroom
were phase three and all have been decorated in
off-whites with pretty pastel accents for a serene
feel. Rosemary also likes to buy original artwork
to give each room personality. ‘Styling my home
feeds my creativity,’ she says. ‘I also take a lot of
inspiration from places we’ve visited or hotels
we’ve stayed in. The Swan Hotel, nearby in
Southwold, is one I love. And my mum is great
with colour and has a good eye, so I’ll often ask
for her advice. She’s also a lover of collecting
ornaments – just like me!’
And are Rosemary and Justin happy with all
they have achieved? ‘Definitely,’ says Rosemary.
‘The family room is my little hygge nest. It’s
my favourite area of the house to sit while the
children play and I’m feeding the baby. I also
love our dining room. It’s where the family
comes together to feast and to chat. Luckily, we
all love our food. Simplicity and balance is what
we wanted to achieve, and I think it’s what
makes this home such a happy one.’understand how it functions and you’ll also get an idea of where the natural light lies’
