Cornish Slate oak herringbone flooring at Redland Family Home

Ivywell Interiors transformed this Victorian home in Redland, thoughtfully updating it for a family of five while honouring its original period character. The property was rebuilt at the rear and re-proportioned throughout.

To pull these newly re-proportioned spaces together, the brief required a single, cohesive floor to anchor the ground level, unifying the entrance hall, restored living room, kitchen, dining area, and a kid-friendly snug.

We supplied our Cornish Slate oak herringbone to achieve a timeless look throughout. The 90mm x 450mm parquet blocks suit the home’s generous proportions, drawing the eye effortlessly from the front hallway out to the garden-facing dining room.

Cornish Slate’s muted grey tones pair seamlessly with the interior—balancing the living room’s rich palette, historic mullioned windows, and warm kitchen brass. Ready for the demands of a busy household, this engineered oak parquet grounds the light-filled space with an elegant open feel.
