A blend of antiques, vivid colours and a bohemian vibe characterise this striking Georgian town house which comes alive over Christmas and New Year, recently transformed by Riv Ahearne in a style uniquely her own. Owning a listed home is many people’s ultimate property dream and when Riv and Marc moved into their handsome Grade 11 listed Georgian manor house eight years ago, rumour had it that Riv had finally settled down, because after four house moves in seven years, she had found her penultimate dream. Judging by the perfect symmetry of its impressive façade covered in Virginia creeper, it is easy to see how this stunning home would have lasting appeal. The manor house occupies a prime position on a quiet cobbled street in a Surrey market town, with a large private garden and separate mews house at the rear. With lofty ceiling heights, an oak hall, graceful sweeping staircase and large square rooms, every nook and cranny is fused with history.
