VINYL & LVT A DREAM HOME
Camaro PUR LVT breathes new life into a magnificent period home within a leafy Greater Manchester suburb.
Jody and Sherry, the proud owners of their period property, opted to blend modern living with historic detailing. Their remarkable ground-floor transformation resulted in an attractive series of open-plan spaces to complement its unique appearance and bold architecture. In its renovated form, the property now offers an expansive communal space for their family, consisting of their beloved children and dog, Millie.
Their sizable, detached property is in Prestwich, a thriving commuter town in the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, Greater Manchester, near the River Irwell. Jody, a recruitment consultancy director, and his partner, Sherry, an artist, initially fell in love with the area and its rich historical heritage. Upon securing their dream home, they saw the design potential within every room.
“We were genuinely doing cartwheels in the garden when we bought the house,” recalls Sherry. "Modern improvements, such as the kitchen skylight, provide a welcome airy feel, whilst elsewhere there are so many historical features that we love.”
The house undertook a complete ground-floor renovation, revitalising the original features throughout its interior and extending the kitchen to create an expansive, multi- functional space.
Sherry, the project designer, utilised her artistic flair whilst overseeing the interior design of their home. She took inspiration from illustrated forestry wallpaper, natural elements, and unconventional furniture. The expert merging of these varied ideas helped to create a memorable home focused on family togetherness and relaxation.
The finished aesthetic is quirky yet cosy, simultaneously appealing to the homeowners and their children. When walking across the refreshed space, a tastefully considered spectrum of colour is visible at every turn.
From the outset, Jody and Sherry knew that the enhanced kitchen area would become the heart of their home. Therefore, it required a warm, traditional shade of flooring to connect with the nearby partitioned dining room and the stylish snug, both heightened by a glorious hallway boasting stained-glass windows.
The chosen LVT needed to flow across each area to create a consistently attractive living space whilst effortlessly matching the modern décor and historic features on display.
Whilst this was a tall order, the versatile design within the Camaro PUR collection lent itself perfectly to both aesthetics. They chose Cambridge Parquet (2251) because of its authentic wooden parquet appearance, realistic plank variation and micro beveling.
Phoenix Flooring, Manchester, was consulted on the project at an early stage, and the flooring installation was completed. Simon Peers, business owner, noted the compelling characteristics of each room, from the skylight over the kitchen island to the hallway alcoves.
