Pinks and greens became the decorating thread throughout Jane and Pete Evans’ home, reflecting its countryside setting

SOFT TOUCH

When Jane and Pete Evans were given the chance to renovate an Edwardian farmhouse, which had been in Jane’s family since the 1920s, they were over the moon. The couple had been renting while they waited for their ‘forever’ home to come along – this was the perfect match.

‘Taking on the house was a serendipitous moment,’ says Jane. ‘We’re both from the area and the location was our dream. We loved the period features and the large rooms at the front, which had lots of potential.’

The old farmhouse stands on a big plot with views in all directions. Jane’s uncle had been living here and though the house was habitable enough to move into, very little had changed in 50 years. ‘We wanted to bring grandeur back into the house and improve the light and flow of the small rooms,’ says Jane. ‘Like most families, the dream was to have a big living space for our children, Jude, 10, Estella, eight, and Delilah, three.’
