Max Rollitt

Oxfordshire Farmhouse

UK

A handsome Oxfordshire farmhouse originally constructed in 1675 as a country retreat for a retired naval captain, its owners enlisted Max to help restore, decorate and furnish the interior.

He and the team worked closely with the clients to add richness and colour, sourcing Georgian furniture and antique textiles to give the house an established feel. As many original features as possible were kept and restored, including the late-seventeenth century oak staircase, and cornicing and chimneypieces throughout.

“We loved Max Rollitt’s background in antiques and his historical knowledge. He was wonderfully enthusiastic about the house and also made us laugh – he has been brilliant throughout. Every decision he made turned out to be absolutely spot on.”

– Homeowner, Oxfordshire Farmhouse

“The furniture is a mix of styles and periods, which helps to make it seem accrued over time. ‘The greatest compliment anyone can pay us is to say it looks as though we have lived here for years and done very little,’ says the owner. Which it does.”

– Ros Byam Shaw, House & Garden
