A Local Cottage









This home is another local real estate find. For the actual locals it's in Homewood. I feel like this home must belong to someone who loves design, maybe a young designer or a wanna be like me? All the lighting quickly grabs my attentions. I wouldn't mind a close up of the dining room chandelier and sconces. For me lighting is so important. It can definitely make or break a room. I also love how clutter free each space is which in turn helps all the stunning antique pieces stand out, of course this could have been done for staging purposes but I doubt it with all the attention to detail this home possesses.

Want more info on this home? I will be more than happy to send out the listing agents info.

  8. Lots of good details here and you're right...the lighting is certainly a standout! I also really love the tiny mirror above the scalloped upholstered bed. Terrific...

  12. Love it. Especially that zebra rug. Wonder if they upgraded it enough to make the closets bigger? That's my main problem with those houses in Homewood - teeny tiny closets.

  20. You find the most amazing places! I'm in love with that study room. The desk is perfect and the chair beautiful. And a Mac! Perfect.

  21. I would live there tomorrow. It seems like the type of place where you'd drink a lot of tea, have cozy knitted blankets, and manage to finish a reading list!
