Coasters Chance Cottage in Cutler, Maine saw Moore House Design add a modern coastal flair to a 1820s cottage. Both the new extension and the old house have a wabi sabi feel celebrating the natural, the imperfection of old houses and the handmade. Vintage and bespoke furnishings along with beautiful rugs fill the house while simple vignettes please the eye.

Shaw House is a magnificent Grade II-listed manor built in the early 18^th century and designed in the classical style. It is set within six acres of beautifully curated grounds just east of Bradford-on-Avon and the historic city of Bath. Accommodation exceeds 9,500 sq ft with nine bedrooms and a beautiful ground floor level that interacts wonderfully with the surrounding terraces and sections of private garden. The slightly raised ground level opens to a spectacular entrance hall with hardwood parquet flooring and a fireplace with a bolection moulded surround. Ahead lies a morning room that links the dual aspect dining room on one side and the kitchen on the other. This northern section of the plan also houses a boot room, pantry and cloakroom. Substantial cellars have been repurposed as a laundry room and offer versatile storage. Open fireplaces are present in all the principal rooms on this level. To the left of the central hall are stairs down to a drawing room, set within a 19^th century, two-storey wing of the house. A wide, sweeping staircase ascends from the hall to the bedrooms, dressing rooms and five bathrooms that are distributed across the first and second floors and on intermediate levels at the northern and southern ends of the plan.

YES. This home is SPECTACULAR. I’d be tempted to ask the sellers to sell the furnishings with it. For sale via Inigo.

You didn’t think I was going to let it go too long without plunging into the portfolio of  New York based design firm Monica Fried Design? With its clean lines, chic materiality and details, mix of vintage and modern this Scarsdale home is just about perfect.

“There is a common thread in our work – clean lines, chic materiality and details, a mix of vintage and modern sourcing — but the end result is always unique.”

Have you ever fallen head over heels for a room that you have only seen in a couple of pictures? I have. I’m smitten by this dark and sexy living room. Stylish and brooding. Luxe and enveloping. The rest of the house is gorgeous too. Westport by Monica Fried Design.
