A Victorian Cottage
Style at Home editor Erin McLaughlin made this gorgeous cottage into her own after a gut renovation. Although I shy away from bold colors I love how her pieces look in otherwise neutral spaces. I would welcome the sofa with open arms. The use of art adds such a personal touch that I just adore. Most people would have used the kitchen nook as a place to dine, but I love how she made it an area to relax. We currently did this in our own home and it works perfectly for us. Well, I am sure I could use the word "love" again and again for this space so I will just stop while I am ahead.

What a beautiful place!
I really enjoy the restraint and combination of elements, textures and colors. The lucite against the bold couch is my favorite above all, I believe. What a statement -- and can be enjoyed double thanks to that stunning large mirror...this is going straight to the inspiration files.
Thanks for sharing, lovely lady :)

What a gorgeous blue couch! Is that lavender on the table too? Isn't it great how she has the sitting area at the end of the lounge, very sweet
wow, i love every piece of this place, gorgeous
I know! I love everything about those spaces. Her couch is to die for the rest of the house is so soft and simple.
I really love this house. SOMEDAY I hope to have that much art...
Oh how I love this house! Especially that living room with the blue sofa and the gorgeous window. These pictures made my day!
Absolutely stunning! The kitchen is fantastic!
Have a nice day,
Federica.
I love this cottage...love the breakfast area....love all the wall of pictures....love everything about this house!
So gorgeous. I love the kitchen/dining area.
the eye for art in this home is impeccable! thanks for sharing!
very pretty!
That huge mirror in the second picture is amazing, and the painting above the bed is beautiful.

The kitchen nook is really perfect! We had one in our last apartment and I used it all of the time (much more than I used the kitchen itself for actual cooking)
Im obsessed with white on white!!
That cobalt blue sofa!!!
Neat idea about the kitchen area. I thought of either changing my dining room into a sitting room, or using my eat in kitchen as a sitting area, but I've been up in the air. Thanks for the inspiration.
swoon! swoon! swoon!
What lovely ideas throughout the house. I just about have room for a sofa in our kitchen but have not taken the plunge yet - do you recommend it? Lovely art work and careful use of colours too.

I want that sink. I want that sink. I want that sink! Oh dear, that sounded terribly greedy, huh? But it's oh-so-pretty. And I love those low shelves.
I love all this! Such a great look. Thanks for sharing.
I love the long bolster pillow on the sofa - just love it!
I could use the word "love" over and over again for this space too! It's so pretty and inviting! I also love that couch! You always find the best homes to share!
they have great artwork!
so beautiful! the first shot of the living room is incredible. great post :)
I "love" the use of floating shelves all over.
Lovely home with many great ideas. Thanks for sharing. We just bought a cabin and plan to make the breakfast nook area a sitting area instead. So much more useful.
yes please, that exact place.
i want it.
i want it now.
*sigh*
I love all the horse pictures! It is a beautiful house!
I love this space too! I posted about it last year with scanned images which didn't do it justice: http://tinyurl.com/ybjj32z
I will have to update the post with these extra large images from the Style at Home site - so much better!
Thanks for sharing those beautiful pics!
Great ideas for a new apartment!
thanks!

This home is simply beautiful. Just amazing.

Absolutely beautiful. I love that blue sofa. And all of the lighting is so great as well. Great natural light and fixtures. Ah. I want it. Love this. Thanks for sharing!
I just love the blue and taupe rug she has used. One of the most beautiful rugs I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing these beautiful pictures.
Cheers

I love how light and open the spaces feel. The accents of blue are just right.
It's awesome isn't it! I just love that eating/ hangin out space! I would love to see a picture of yours!! xo
that breakfast nook with a high back settee is so cozy & adorable!
I love that shade of dark blue that is the sofa and that one painting. So rich and perfect with the rest of the pale palette...
Loving the blue and white used throughout the space-- it is such a calming interior!
The eat-in area is so, so good. Heck, the entire place is pretty darn fabulous!
Pretty fabulous... love everything about it!
So striking with those punches of blue and I love that matte black dish wear all lined up. Nice find!
