Michael Mahon had no intention of moving house but then he came across a "very tired looking, run down" Victorian building for sale. It is now the home of Clifton House Period Interiors. Michael still doesn't know quite what prompted him to buy the dilapidated building. The place had been sadly neglected over the years but many of its original features were still in place fireplaces, a cast iron range, a stained glass window, carved oak panelling and ornate plasterwork on the ceilings in the drawing and dining rooms. "I realised," says Michael "that my future was going to be in the past."

After painstaking restoration, he opened part of the house as a private Victorian Dining Rooms which proved to be immensely successful. Many customers pleaded with him to sell some of the furnishings which he occasionally did. "I enjoyed so much replacing them and realised there was a gap in the market here." So he closed the restaurant and together with three lifelong friends converted the house into a vast emporium of 15 magnificent rooms stocked with beautiful reproduction period furniture, fabrics, pictures, mirrors, fixtures, fittings and accessories. Clifton House also offers a design service, sourcing and delivering the best furnishings available.
