“A colourful, inspirational, and deeply personal family home set over four floors in a Notting Hill terrace for a lovely and creative young family. The traditional country house vernacular has been toughened up and given a little edge with an explosion of colour, pattern and a scattering of contemporary furniture and fittings.”

Monroe Street House, a fully renovated 1899 brick rowhouse, combines historic charm with modern, sunlit interiors for a multi-generational family. TBo‘s design retains the Federal-style character while adding a spacious concrete-framed extension, featuring raw, natural materials that will develop a beautiful patina over time. Inside, airy rooms with lime-plastered walls contrast the exposed brick and Douglas fir ceiling beams lend warmth and texture. The ground floor studio opens into a polished concrete space, blending smoothly into the garden. Each floor emphasizes openness, with large windows and doors inviting light, creating a serene, flexible living space that seamlessly blends old and new.

This is the vacation home to beat all vacation homes! This has EVERYTHING you could want – a huge stone fireplace, soaring wood ceilings, banks of windows overlooking Squam Lake with a massive window seat, a kitchen that immediately went into my inspiration folder, an expansive porch that includes a whole other area for outdoor living….

Warm, earthy, neutral, comfortable and a wee bit monastic. This sort of vibe is one of the rare times I appreciate a white backdrop. A really pretty Spanish home in San Jose designed by Evgenia Merson. Photos: Jessica Burke.
