The brief called for a complete
refurbishment of a three bedroom terraced
house in Chelsea. With both light and
space in short supply, the client asked for a
basement to increase the internal space to
enable 4 ensuite bedrooms to be built.
The Clients Danish roots have inspired a
clean minimalistic look with quirky features
bringing the whole house together and
creating a beautiful home.
The first floor bedroom is light and airy
leading via large sliding glazed doors onto
an external terrace. In the en-suite shower
room we have had Bespoke shower doors
manufactured by the window company
giving a modern look.
Externally the property benefits from a
wooden decked terrace with recessed
lights, a space for entertaining and cooking.
We have built a seating area with concealed
storage and planters to enhance the beauty
of the external space.
The large Master bedroom has a bespoke
walk in wardrobe with feature lighting and
plenty of storage space.
The magnificent master bathroom has been
clad in marble which has been delicately
book matched to create a stunning effect.
Lighting effects have been utilised to create
a calming enjoyable space for relaxing.
Hughes Group have taken the concept and
ideas from Camilla and turned this into
reality.
From the bespoke joinery integrated lighting
in each of the bedrooms reflecting the
needs of the client to the luxury bathrooms
chosen by the client and brought to life by
Hughes Group.

Underfloor heating has been installed
throughout the property to provide
comfortable heating with a ducted A/C
system integrating discrete grills providing
cooling in the hotter months, creating a
seamless look in keeping with the overall
theme of the property.
To emphasize the light and space large
Crittal windows were installed along with
large glazed doors in three of the bedrooms
with access to external seating areas.
The basement bedrooms enjoy access to a
small patio with a beautiful large living wall
to enhance the enjoyment of the outside
space.
The property benefits from a heat recovery
system, Led lighting throughout, well
insulated and triple glazed windows to
ensure minimal heat loss and to reduce
energy consumption.
As you walk into the property you are met
with a large living area and a bespoke
kitchen seamlessly integrating into this
family room.
A cleverly hidden utility room behind
bespoke doors, leading to a cloakroom.
The floor layout has been planned to
make full use of the space provided with
features to ensure essential items are easily
accessible but hidden from sight.
The staircase was a special request from
the client and the result is spectacular
making a feature from functional staircase.
The ground to first floor staircase leads to
a small landing with natural light from a
light tunnel whereas the staircase to the
basements leads down to a study area with
the walls clad in Penguin book wallpaper
supplied by Osbourne and Little.
Throughout the property we have installed
a Sonos system and control 4, with sleek
ceiling speakers and a centralised control
ipad with the additional functionality on
each of the resident’s phones.
It is a simple and easy to use system
providing the residents with Audio visual
control for each room.
At Hughes Group we love working with
our clients and bringing their ideas to life,
making a home to be proud of and live
comfortably in.
