‘We were living in a two-bedroom flat in north London before moving here,’ says Joanne.
When interior designer Joanne Coe and her husband Pete were house hunting in a leafy part of Hertfordshire, their property search was stymied by a lack of available houses within their budget. ‘We’d been living in a two-bedroom flat in Finsbury Park and wanted to move out of London for a better quality of life and good schools for our daughter Evie, now aged 11,’ says Joanne. But there were very few three-bedroom properties and the larger four-beds were out of our price range. So we set ourselves the challenge of finding a two-bedroom property that could be extended to provide the extra space we needed.’
