A Fresh Take On A Vintage Cottage

A charming circa 1920′s stone cottage recently became the setting for a client’s new lifestyle.  The cottage has a totally different ambiance than her previous homes and was fun and challenging to transform the vintage cottage into an up-to-date home.

Stained glass windows, hardwood floors and high ceilings were some of the unique features of this home.  The whole house was completely repainted inside and out.  We selected a rich brown for the the fireplace and vaulted beams, and kept the trim and walls neutral.  The color palette for the furnishings included soft blues, neutrals, and yellow/gold tones.

New chandeliers in the living, dining, and breakfast rooms add warmth throughout the house. This one is made of wood and iron and was stunning in person!
