Self Build Annaghmore | Functionality meets Finesse

Jade, the creative force behind Jadore Decor, has transformed her dream home in Mountsandel into a haven of elegance and style. With an eye for interior design, she embarked on a journey to create a home with luxury and functionality. Bassetts, turned her vision into reality. Let’s look at the four exquisite bathrooms that testify to Jade’s impeccable taste and Bassetts’ commitment to quality.

Downstairs Loo: Where Quirkiness Meets Practicality

In the smallest space of the house, Jade let her creativity run wild, turning the downstairs loo into a quirky yet practical oasis. Earthy tones from the animal-inspired wallpaper set the stage, creating a connection to the surrounding forest. The neutral, earthy palette and gold fixtures maintain an elegant and warm ambience. A statement jungle-themed wallpaper adds a touch of fun, while a matt black radiator adorned with a statement towel ties seamlessly into the forest theme. Opting for a wall-hung Roca toilet adds a touch of modernity and maximises floor space, creating an extra-deep shelf beneath the window—a perfect spot for adding personal style. The careful selection of a stunning ocean blue floor-standing vanity unit, paired with a brushed brass tap, reflects Jade’s foresight in creating a versatile space. This choice provides a timeless aesthetic and allows for the easy interchange of wallpapers over the years.

Nestled in the village of Annaghmore, County Armagh, stands a stunning self-build bungalow bathed in natural light. This family home wouldn’t be complete without the exquisite bathrooms meticulously designed and supplied by Bassetts Bathroom, Portadown Showroom. 

The self-build project boasted three main bathrooms: a downstairs cloakroom, a spacious family bathroom, and a master ensuite. Each space was meticulously designed to cater to specific needs while maintaining a cohesive design language.

 

 

Balancing Functionality and Finesse

The project presented a unique opportunity for a Bassetts bathroom designer Tracey Hendron to collaborate with the couple to design their dream bathrooms for their forever home. From initial drawings, design consultations to final installation, Tracey navigated the journey with them, ensuring every detail contributed to the perfect balance of functionality and finesse.

The chosen colour palette seamlessly flowed throughout the bathrooms, creating a sense of cohesive luxury while retaining a distinct character for each space. This ensured the bathrooms became individual havens yet remained perfectly in sync with the home’s overall aesthetic.

The Main Family Bathroom

The main family bathroom takes centre stage with a stunning Waters freestanding bath. This luxurious centerpiece is complemented by a stunning curved edge walk-in shower, ensuring both relaxation and practicality. The use of a double wall-hung Elements vanity unit in a sophisticated sage green adds a touch of understated elegance. Brushed brass Aqualla brassware complements the vanity unit, creating a unified visual flow.

Bathed in natural light, this spacious bathroom epitomises modern luxury. The curved walk-in shower adds a touch of captivating design, making it both visually appealing and highly functional.

The Master Ensuite

The master ensuite presents a unique challenge – a smaller space requiring expert design knowledge to ensure this is optimised for functionality and finesse. The creation of a stunning  “alley style” bathroom that maximises space without sacrificing aesthetic.

The wall-hung Elements vanity unit in a sleek grey sets the tone for sophistication. The HIB Chevron bowl adds a touch of edgy personality, perfectly complementing the brushed bronze hardware that gleams throughout the space. The shower cleverly utilises the full height and width of one side of the room, ensuring a comfortable experience without compromise. 

To elevate the ambience, matt black exposed bulb Bright by Bassetts wall lights were added to either side of the mirror and vanity. These fixtures create a warm, inviting glow, adding a layer of both ambient and focused task lighting in this intimate space.

The Downstairs Cloakroom

The downstairs cloakroom prioritises space utilisation without compromising style. A wall-hung Roca vanity unit in a timeless taupe shade creates a clean, uncluttered aesthetic. This efficient design ensures the essential functionality of a cloakroom without sacrificing on style.
