Rustica - Warmth & Richness

With the Rustica, we celebrate design elements that have stood the test of time and reflect the ways in which Great British industries have defined historical and modern architecture. This home is all about being immersed in the fabric of the raw materials that have formed the basis of Britain’s industries, agriculture and traditional family homes, but with a modern twist. We call it modern rustic chic – and we love it!

From the moment you step into the vestibule, everything around you is warm, tactile, earthy and honest. The exposed timber beams that form the angles of the vaulted ceiling tie into the glulam timber ridge beam. The solid oak and metal-legged bench in the entrance is accentuated by a real slate-clad wall (another nod to our Welsh heritage) and framed by two feature pendant lights that are set in open alcoves. A beautiful warped-metal pendant lights this grand entrance.

These features are carried through to the lounge and dining area, which can be accessed via sliding doors set on black metal roller hinges. Two French doors at the front of the home frame the central focal point of the living area, where a feature fire is set against a large slate-clad wall, providing the perfect place to rest and unwind.

The graciously proportioned open-plan kitchen is well equipped with a host of conveniences and appliances. But this is far from just a functional space; the Rustica's kitchen is a work of art, with a solid wood butcher's block on the wrap-around breakfast bar and real copper pendant and wall lights. You’ll find it a joy to simply be there.

The master bedroom incorporates an ensuite with a freestanding bath, shower and hidden toilet. It contains rustic, curved furniture that complements the internal décor, with wood flooring, wrought-iron beams and colours that have been lovingly chosen to ensure that a rustic, wholesome feel is felt throughout.
