Regency Place

Known for being the best in British house building for 25 years, award-winning developers Millgate have taken their quintessential English home design one step further at their latest luxury collection in Surrey.
 
Friendly, warm and timeless, the six stunning 5 bedroom detached homes at Regency Place located in the picturesque village of Walton-on-the-Hill, Surrey exemplify the way we really want to live with fresh New England style interiors courtesy of Alexander James Interior Design.
 
Classic design and relaxed living can go hand-in-hand as Regency Place proves with New England interiors being perfect for lovers of old Americana, taking inspiration from both colonial times and typical English style traits.
 
The warm and relaxed mood together with personalised details, all contribute to the look that makes Millgate homes so special. Combining wood furniture with natural fabrics is a must, but what are the most important features of these luxurious family homes that characterise this fashionable New England style?

Stacey Sibley, Creative Director of Alexander James Interior Design for Millgate explains; "New England style is very much a relaxed natural look based on textures, mixing linens with cottons, sisal carpets on wood floors, light simple window treatments, distressed wood furniture mixed with industrial style pieces. It´s all about comfort, being able to kick back and relax.

"The basic idea behind the New England look is a cleanliness of lines, married with a taste for quality of design and natural materials. Nature, in New England terms, is pervasively beautiful and rich, providing inspiration for the house´s colour palette and decorations such as flowers and small branches - fresh or dried - shells, sand and pebbles. Materials are rigorously natural from the floors to the upholstery fabrics, stone-like granite and slate both for flooring and countertops, indoors and outdoors.

"Following the same principle, upholstery designs and prints are inspired by natural forms, such as stylised flowers and plant motives, or monogrammed linens and simple stripes. Woodwork in general is kept stylish but never over the top, often painted traditional white and in cream tones for everyday elegance."
 
Whether you yearn for the weathered charm of a Nantucket beach house or the rustic simplicity of a traditional farm house with country style accents, Regency Place boasts an interior to die for and a homely environment for the whole family to feel comfortable and at ease.
