A preserved and renovated 1920s Tudor

Posted on Thu, 25 May 2023 by KiM

There’s something so charming, stately and old-world about Tudor homes that I just can’t get enough. This stunner in Dallas was carefully restored and updated and has such incredible features inside and out. I am in love with every single detail. Hats off to Sees Design and Maestri Studio for really doing this wonderful home justice. Photos: Studio-Woodstock & Jenifer McNeil Baker.

Bettencourt Lodge

Posted on Tue, 23 May 2023 by KiM

I have been following Matthew and Rick Bettencourt of Bettencourt Manor on IG for some time now and have been in love with their style – it’s earthy, rustic, vintage, geometric, contemporary….a little of everything rolled into this most wonderful package. They bought a 1400 sq ft log cabin in the Kawarthas (Omemee, On.) as an all-season escape from city life and the 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom Bettencourt Lodge is now available on Airbnb for an escape of your own! It is an absolutely stunning getaway in both summer and winter.

A 14th century castle in Piozzo, Italy

Posted on Sun, 14 May 2023 by KiM

The 14th century Castle stands in the small and delightful village of Piozzo, surrounded by the hills of the Langhe. Beautifully preserved and in a dominant position with splendid views over the famous hills that produce the most Italian wines. Over the centuries it underwent various interventions that transformed it into a luxurious home. The noble building is spread over two floors and a basement for a total of 1280 square meters divided into 15 rooms (9 bedrooms) and 3 bathrooms. A magnificent and monumental staircase connects the floors of the building. Close to the Castle there is a farmhouse of 315 square meters. It is on two levels and consists of an apartment with 3 bedrooms, a bathroom, a rumpus room, a parking space, a porch and a barn. The Castle is surrounded by 53400 square meters of land, partly planted with vineyards and partly wooded.
The architecture of this home is like something out of a movie. LOVE IT! For sale for €2,100,000, via James Edition. This one goes out to my mom who is from northern Italy (a little town called Borgo Val di Taro).

An old world and nautical Palm Beach home

Posted on Thu, 11 May 2023 by KiM

Maintaining original Mediterranean Revival architecture in this gorgeous home in Palm Beach was the best decision the owners and designer Mark D. Sikes could have made. Cypress ceilings, metal railings, decorative bottle-glass faux windows, and even a family crest of dubious origin over the living room fireplace were kept intact. Greens and blues and a bit of coral, some stenciling, hand-painted wallpaper and lots of patterns in tile, upholstery and rugs make this home a bit nautical, a bit old world and layered in a way only a seasoned designer can.
