This newly built spacious home is full of character and child-friendliness for a family with four children. It’s unassuming on the outside but has everything you could want – pantry/second kitchen, home theater, secret playroom, wine and bar rooms etc etc. I REALLY love that off the kitchen is a covered area with a BBQ so you could enjoy meals outside even in the rain.

This newly built Atlanta home was another beauty by architect Stan Dixon that was thoughtfully designed to blend in with the 1920s neighbouring homes. This one is a bit more elegant than the last home but also unpretentious and very liveable, with elements I adore – pedimented doorways, Swiss-style millwork, whitewashed brick, a secret doored butlers pantry, weathered stone floors, wood-burning fireplace in the kitchen…Interiors by Carolyn Malone.

Project Alton House. Earthy, moody, and inviting—our concept for this home was inspired by the property’s private forest setting, with an aesthetic that balances the simplicity of natural materials with English-inspired sophistication. In both the exterior and interior, we opted for rich neutrals and enduring style—with plenty of opportunities inside for our client, a ceramicist, to showcase her work.
This house is beautiful. So classic and timeless with colours and finishes that are not trendy and could last for years. By TIffany Leigh Design; Photos: Patrick Biller; Styling: Me&Mo; Build: Kingsgate Construction
The restoration of a 1930s Georgian Revival residence in Melbourne by Fiona Lynch Office celebrates craftsmanship and timeless design. Decades of discordant changes were removed to restore clarity while preserving original decorative features like fireplace mantels and elegant arches with corbels. A new glass pavilion radically transforms family living, connecting the kitchen to the woodland garden and filling the home with natural light. Bold stone elements define remodelled bathrooms and a robust travertine-marble kitchen island. The design integrates original features with contemporary updates, including custom oak finishes, mismatched stone panels and sculptural staircases, creating a seamless balance between classic elegance and modern living.

This gorgeous home on 130 acres is located in Millbrook, in the Hudson Valley. Designed by Cicognani Kalla Architect it is country living at its finest. The great room has two 18th century stone fireplaces, limestone tile floors, and custom French doors. The kitchen opens right up onto fabulous gardens and a stone terrace. It has a heated greenhouse, wine cellar, chicken coop, and outbuildings include caretaker’s home and office. I also found that in December of last year it was for sale for $13.1M. What a dream!
