PREVIOUS PROPERTY ‘I was living locally and Matt was in Leeds before we got married and bought this house,’ says Emily.

When Emily Wilton and her husband Matt first viewed their present home, they lost no time in deciding to buy it. ‘I’d made up my mind before I viewed it,’ says Emily. ‘My childhood home was Victorian, so I felt that connection straight away. The Victorians really knew how to make a statement with their architecture and it was the beautiful period details that drew me to the house. I was blown away by the grandeur, so I could see past the dreary decor and old-fashioned wallpaper.’

DINING ROOM In here, Emily decided to introduce natural features, such as the foliage and throw, for an organic element. Similar Harley black dining table, £1,341, Liang & Eimil. Try Wycombe black dining bench, £281, House of Isabella
