ENGLISH HOUSE TOUR | Skye McAlpine's Gorgeous London Townhome

Renowned cookbook author and Tavola founder Skye McAlpine welcomes us into her enchanting Victorian home in the heart of Southwest London.
When Skye first acquired the property, it lacked the original character typical of a Victorian house, instead featuring a stark and contemporary aesthetic. However, with her keen eye for design, Skye quickly infused the space with magic, transforming it into a cheerful, vibrant, and cozy abode while preserving its remarkable structural features.
Skye’s formative years in Venice, Italy, have profoundly influenced her design philosophy and creative vision. Upon entering, you’re greeted by a kitchen bathed in a dreamy custard hue-a space Skye meticulously revamped to serve as a flexible area perfect for hosting gatherings and soirées. The interiors are adorned with exquisite hand-painted wallpapers, charming chintzy fabrics, and an array of vintage furnishings, collectively epitomizing the timeless allure of classic English design. Enjoy!

    I grew up in a house that had a yellow kitchen. In every house I've lived in since - if I had a choice - I've painted it yellow. It IS a happy color, which is important for the first room you go to in the morning to start the day.

    I love her. She’s very charming and so is her home. I love the way she decorated it. It looks and feels so cozy. I have three of her books.

    Where in the video does it say that she doesn’t earn her own money? She has a business. Why do you assume her husband earns all the money? She mentioned her job. This honestly just comes across as sexist. She works and contributes. None of us know how much- perhaps her business takes in a lot! What’s the issue? Or are you just mad that she has a posh voice?

    @@Mimi-ht6xr I totally I agree that it’s not our business and I also love her house! But I take exception to people making snap judgements like the original commenter did with absolutely no basis whatsoever. They heard her voice and assumed that because she’s a woman she must have a rich man bank rolling her. The homeowner mentioned her various businesses throughout the video, so anyone jumping to the conclusion that she must have a man paying for things must be sexist.
