Country House Boot Room
HAMPSHIRE
This beautiful country house boot room for a Victorian home was designed to store shoes, coats and all manner of outdoor gear for a family with three young boys. The client also wanted the boot room to feel as if it had been there forever, integrating seamlessly with the rest of the house.
The interior designers, worked closely with the client to pick out colours, fabrics and flooring, while Guild Anderson was tasked with designing and making cabinetry to suit the client’s needs. Ample storage was required for jackets, sticks and sporting equipment. Also involved in delivering the wider project were the builders, Emma Kirby Design.
A Butler’s sink was set in to the the dark green hand painted cabinetry for washing boots, dogs and filling vases. Taking inspiration from estate cabinet makers that would have worked on traditional period houses, boarded walls, peg rails and bench seating have been incorporated.

FEATURES
French polished details
To keep the boot room space looking pretty and elegant, the oak bench seat was designed with a scalloped rail with hand turned legs, finished by hand in a reinforced hand applied French polish which enhances the grain in the natural wood.
A full height cupboard with drawer underneath provides ample space to store sports kit, outdoor blankets and essential items for a busy outdoor family.
An oak peg rails with brass hooks contrasts well with the French polished bench, creating harmony throughout the boot room.
As well as this bespoke boot room, we were also commisisoned to create a bespoke kitchen design in the early Victorian country house style.
