The couple enlisted the help of interior designers The Style Sisters to design, transform and organise the family's utility room – and it looks incredible! They've gone for sage green built-in cupboards and a statement green and pink floral wallpaper. The room's stone tiles have been switched out for pastel pink herringbone ones, giving the space an eye-catching look. As expected from the organisation queens, the storage is on point with perfectly categorised Perspex baskets and an ottoman trunk.

Gemma and Charlotte revealed all on their Instagram feed @stylesisters, sharing a photograph with Jools, as well as before and after images of the space. Scroll through the post to see the transformation.

"It of course also had to be super functional! We both love this newly updated utility room or what the room was known as the ‘Lamp Room’. The room was used to keep the oil lamps in, these would then be used to light up the house! We love finding out the history of our clients' homes."

The couple share their Essex mansion, known as Spains Hall, with their five children Daisy Boo Pamela, Poppy Honey Rosie, Buddy Bear Maurice, Petal Blossom Rainbow and River Rocket.

The historic property has had an interesting past; it was once dramatically burgled but the thieves were forced to leave their loot in the lake when their getaway car broke down.

The buried treasure was then lost for 150 years before new owners discovered the silverware at the bottom of the water!
