Interior designer, Laura Passey’s re-design of Tracy Verrier’s Victorian country house in Surrey as featured in The English Home magazine

Feature by Clair Wayman

Coming home after living in America for 20 years, Tracy Verrier and her husband James were looking for somewhere they could put down roots and instantly fell for an elegant yet dated Victorian manor house in Surrey. Photographer, Astrid Templier brought these pre-shot images to me and from there I got to discover how Tracey and interior designer Laura Passey collaborated to transform this large property. Taking inspiration from her musical background, as well as the history of the house, Laura blended various themes to create a truly personal home for her clients. This is an optimistic tale about coming home, breathing new life into a grand old house and finding contentment.
