Cottage 21

I have to stop blogging after drinking, because I have an inordinate amount to say after a cocktail or two, usually to my detriment (or someone else's). Oh well, the blog visit stats are through the roof, although I think Lisa said the other day that she is now locking her car doors at night. Here's amazing Cottage 21, all dressed up and ready to party.

Arts and Crafty - with big stone pillars, tapered columns, and a lot of bells and whistles. Front porch pond view.

And into the kitchen with Hickory cabinets and black countertop and open wood painted shelves and farm sink.

Big open living room with 1x12 white pine shiplap, stained min-wax Early American.

And looking from above at the twirling fan, and windows.

The loft space houses a bedroom, with duel barn doors. We used some 1x8 beveled siding on the exterior of this interior wall, and then stained it white.

Porch view.

Money Shot.

Big spindles, clapboard siding, 2 barn beams and a sconce and radiator that share a hue.

Living room, waiting for that house warming party that is scheduled for the not so distant future.

Really love this shower, but have yet to fine an angle that captures it truely.

And the downstairs, pretty traditional full bath, looking out into the yard.

And the side shot, perfectly tended to.

We've come a long way - our first few houses we didn't have the money, time, resources or professional relationships to even consider such a tight presentation.

My how times have changed.
