Jo and I have featured so many incredibly beautiful homes in Ibiza over the years and as a result I yearn to visit this magical place. Casa Karina (and several other villas) is a rental property of Amsterdam-born Tom van Amerongen who fell in love with Ibiza and moved there in 2009. It would be a dream to be able to stay here and enjoy the sun, warmth and the surroundings.

Yes, yes I know it’s another property from The Modern House but I’m using the same excuse as last time :p Light filled and lovely with its restrained neutral colour palette, raw materials and contemporary living within a Victorian shell. I’d be happy to spend my days in lock down tending to a thriving indoor jungle. Walsingham Road, London E5 for sale via The Modern House.

“A former ballroom is the setting of this exquisitely designed two-bedroom apartment. It is situated on highly sought-after Courtfield Gardens in Kensington, with a private balcony terrace overlooking a verdant churchyard square, to which it has resident’s access … The design seizes on the dramatic scale offered by four-meter ceilings and huge south-facing French windows at the front aspect.”

Apologies for posting more amazing homes from The Modern House. I had no idea that Kim had posted one of their properties yesterday until after I had uploaded these fabulous pics but I don’t think you’ll mind. I mean look at this apartment! The soaring ceilings, the Crittall wall, that verdant balcony with views over a churchyard AND all in Kensington. Out of my price range but a girl can dream. Courtfield Gardens for sale via The Modern House.

I continue my quest to find the most beautiful restored homes which seem to all be in London, or somewhere in France. They almost bring me to tears I am so enamoured with the history and the patina and the craftsmanship. This one is entirely renovated and reconfigured in recent years, care of Mosley and Mann architects and I applaud them for not turning this into some blasphemous modern shell. Bermondsey Street, for sale via The Modern House.

Oh so elegant. Oh so chic. Oh so French. This stylish Parisian apartment on the rue de Verneuil in 7th arrondissement is for sale. Marketed as a pied-à-terre at 113m2 with two reception rooms, kitchen, small library/guest room and lovely master bedroom it’s more than large enough to live out my Paris dreams. At 2 850 000 € though I may just have to keep fantasizing. Via Kasha Paris.
