Spotted on dailymail.co.uk, this Tudor house in Hastings, UK is one of the most beautiful rehabilitation projects we have ever written about. Motivated by the fact that many old buildings in the area lost their original features, the owner – a ardent admirer of the Tudor house style – spent more than £500,000 on buying and renovating it. First of all, he focussed on preserving the simple, rustic and the less impressive aspects of the building that reminds us of medieval cottages. Steeply pitched roofs, half-timbering often infilled with herringbone brickwork, tall mullioned windows and high chimneys are items that characterise a common Tudor house.

The kitchen looks like a museum, but it is fully accessorised and functional.
