Claudia Winkleman enjoys her stylish urban home as a refuge from her energetic role on the show Strictly Come Dancing. Recently announcing her departure from the show with Tess Daly, Claudia resides in a Grade II-listed townhouse in central London with her husband Kris Thykier and their children. Notably, the family’s neighbors include former Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie.
While Claudia usually keeps her family life private, she occasionally shares glimpses of their lavish home on Instagram. The elegant residence, situated in a prime location near Marble Arch, showcases Claudia’s refined Scandi-inspired decor, characterized by a neutral color scheme throughout.
Her living room features a striking floor-to-ceiling bookcase and calming sage green walls that harmonize with the minimalist and functional Scandi style. In one video, Claudia is seen surrounded by face masks she designed for Great Ormond Street Hospital, exuding a serene ambiance against cream wood-paneled walls.
In another snapshot from 2017, Claudia and makeup expert Sali Hughes are captured in the bathroom with pristine white marble walls and flooring, accentuated by a standalone bathtub with silver fixtures. The kitchen follows a similar aesthetic, with backlit marble slabs and modern appliances, including an advanced fridge for selecting organic produce.
A fashionable jute carpet adorns the whitewashed staircase, leading to a spacious balcony enveloped in greenery for the family’s privacy. Claudia once shared her fondness for the home, mentioning that she appreciates its convenience and simplicity, including her shower, bread bin, and pet tortoise, Yoshi.
Interestingly, one notable absence in the stylish townhouse is mirrors. Claudia’s mother, Eve Pollard, instilled in her the value of focusing on inner qualities rather than outward appearance, leading to a mirror-free environment in the house. Claudia attributes her unique look and confidence to her mother’s influence, emphasizing the importance of qualities like intelligence and character over superficial aspects.
