Huge thanks to Adam for sending us the link to this incredible listing!
This stunning French Empire majestic home was built in 1876 and was formerly known as the Sheilds Residence and one of Toronto’s oldest homes. It was recently restored & renovated and has 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 11 ft ceilings and is over 5,000 sq ft. The attention to detail in every square inch and the colours and patterns are impeccable. I am in love. This could all be yours for a mere $4.725M 🙂 (Also kudos to SilverHouse for fab listing pics)

Hound House is a newly built built country home in the Oxfordshire countryside, designed by hám interiors. They used reclaimed materials which adds such beautiful touches to this home and leads you to believe it’s been around for centuries. The flooring choices really make this home shine.

A newly built home on the Oregon coast

I am smitten with this Oregon coast newly built home designed by Anne McDonald. All of the wood and natural materials used throughout, and the earthy colour palette make this home so warm. Happy to see it’s not your typical beachy blue and white theme (bleh).

In the small town of O Porirño, Pontevedra, we find this unique property dating back to early 1901, finished in great detail by the Galician architect Jenaro de la Fuente Dominguez. One inside Villa Florida, the mansion offers historical artistry. There are 2 levels of space, high ceilings measuring almost 5 metres high and historic mosaic tile flooring, stonework and carpentry. We have the living area on the main floor, with a grand dining room leading to the back garden, the sitting lounge, the living room, a large kitchen, a study/library, and the grand stairway to the first floor. On the first floor, we find the sleeping area. There are 5 bedrooms, 2 shared bathrooms, a dressing and ironing room and a large exterior terrace. On the rear side of the building, there is an extensive green area in which there was an English and a French garden in the golden days of this Villa Florida, of which there are still signs. It offers large trees, plants, and lovely exterior spaces that can be enjoyed today. Aside from needing a major overhaul of the kitchen and bathrooms, this 460m² home is incredibly beautiful. For sale via Lucas Fox for €1,850,000
