Eclectic Edwardian

07Feb13

Upon entering this home you are greeted by wildebeest and water buffalo heads, both donning very stylish hats, and you know this is no ordinary Edwardian home. Located in Rye, England the house was in deplorable condition when Marcus and Gareth found it, unable to even enter it for 2 months due to safety precautions. The couple stripped in bare and once the renovation was completed found that all of their furnishings wouldn’t fit. What to do? They rented a business space, put the overflow there for sale and it was a success. They now have a larger spot with a successful non-traditional antique business which also features industrial items and art. The couple not only rescued their house, the spot is also home to 6 rowdy rescue dogs and the couple’s fantastic collection of taxidermy, art, and found furnishings. pb
