There are fewer than 70 miles between David and Victoria Beckham‘s two homes: a historic townhouse in London’s Holland Park and a rustic estate in the Cotswolds. However, despite the short distance, the properties couldn’t feel more contrasting.
Their city home, as one would expect in West London, is a Grade II-listed Victorian townhouse in Holland Park, one of the capital’s most prestigious neighborhoods. Its quiet luxury interiors pay homage to its historic roots while feeling subtly modern (with the help of designers Rose Uniacke and Kelly Hoppen, no less).
The estate began as three Grade‑II‑listed farmhouses converted into one large barn‑style home, retaining traditional Cotswold features such as exposed stone walls, wooden beams, and fireplaces. The modern-rustic style interiors draw from earthy materials, handcrafted furniture, and plaid fabrics that feel more relaxed than those in their London home. Let’s take a closer look.
1. The London Townhouse
The Beckham’s purchased their Victorian townhouse in 2013 for around £31-£37 million ($42-$50 million) and moved in after extensive renovations were completed around 2016. In recent years, it’s become one of our favorite homes here on the Celebrity Style desk, starting with the kitchen, designed by Italian powerhouse Officine Gullo.
Much like the rest of the home, the kitchen blends classic Victorian charm with contemporary luxury, combining elements such as tall ceilings and large windows (remnants of the period property) with sleek elements, including tall, dark cabinets and a wooden island.
Meanwhile, their London living room offers a masterclass in decorating with neutrals. Soft luxury is achieved through a layered neutral palette anchored by a plush green ottoman (like this one from Crate & Barrel) and a crisp white accent chair (like this one on Wayfair).
By combining these accents with soft creams, natural textures, and understated furnishings, Victoria creates a timeless, elegant atmosphere (that’s not dissimilar to her store on Dover St). The result feels both sophisticated and comfortably lived-in.

It’s sleek, polished, and so chic in every sense of the word (but what more would we expect from Victoria’s home?)
2. The Cotswolds Hideaway
In contrast, their Cotswolds estate is a rustic retreat, comprising three converted farmhouses (which now sit as one barn-style home).
Naturally, this comes with everything you can expect from a converted farm: Exposed stone, wooden beams, and wooden floors throughout the property. Where London emphasizes polished, indoor sophistication, the Cotswolds home celebrates a rustic charm that’s impossible to find in the city.

In line with expectations, the modern-farmhouse kitchen is notably more rustic than the Italian alternative in their London home. It features high ceilings with exposed wooden beams and stone flooring, giving the space an open, barn‑like character that suits the converted farmhouse setting.
Dark cabinetry with gold or navy accents keeps the design coordinated without feeling too modern, while glass doors open onto the garden, blurring the line between indoors and outdoors and making the space feel even more connected to the surrounding landscape – a perfect balance of rustic style and Beckham luxury.
If you’ve been keeping up with the Beckhams for a long time, you may also know that they keep chickens on their grounds.
The couple has a small flock that provides fresh eggs, and the hens roam in a dedicated coop and enclosed garden area, tapping into a growing celebrity trend (also practiced by the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and Jessica Alba).
From the elegance of their Holland Park townhouse to the rustic sophistication of their Cotswolds estate, the Beckhams’ homes reveal a remarkable ability to blend style with comfort, despite the difference in architecture. Each property is a study in thoughtful design, balancing heritage, polish, and a chicness we can expect from the family. It’s truly impossible to choose a favorite.
