Inside Victoria and David Beckham's £31 5M mansion

Most busy families with a six-year-old running around wouldn't dream of opting for pristine cream couches and a sleek monochromatic colour scheme, but when you're Victoria Beckham, naturally only the chicest decor will do. 

The mother-of-four, 43, regularly uses Instagram to share glimpses into the £31.5million family home in West London she shares with David, 42, Harper, six, Romeo, 12, Cruz, 15, and Brooklyn, 18, when he's home from New York. 

Her latest was a video of 12-year-old Cruz whipping up pancakes in the kitchen, which showed that - in keeping with her fashionista's love of black - Victoria chose dark gloss units for the room, which is littered with on-trend accessories.

Copper accents include a set of pans, the knife block and Dualit toaster, while a £2,700 Fracino Contempo Coffee Machine provides barista standard drinks.

A wall-mounted television means her family of keen cooks, including David, can stay entertained while they whip up culinary creations. 

These are often served at the banquet-style wooden dining table with a row of glass pendant lights hanging overhead and a padded bench running alongside it on which Harper sometimes perches for a nap.  

Even the kitchen table features a black and white checked print, in keeping with the monochromatic colour scheme 

The modern entrance hall features black and white tiles and a marble staircase, in keeping with the monochrome theme running through the rest of the house. 

Living areas are kept simple with white couches and minimalist decor, although a Tracey Emin neon artwork provides a striking focal point.  

Other standout features include opulent chandeliers, antique mirrors and elaborate period fireplaces. 

Outdoors, the Beckham children like to erect a teepee in the garden, decorated with fairy lights, where aspiring-singer Cruz can grab some quiet time for his guitar practice.

The entrance porch aslo features more monochrome tiling with a diamond pattern covered by a wrought iron and glass canopy.  

The Beckhams splashed out £8million on renovating their luxurious townhouse, which they bought in September 2013, creating a host of home improvements including six bedrooms, a gym, wine cellar and powder room. 

They employed celebrity designer Rose Uniacke to oversee the whole project, which also includes a home cinema, indoor pool and even an air-conditioned garden before making the move in August 2016.
