Home tour- An exquisite old world manor!














 via

This magnificent home truly embodies old world charm and elegance. Overflowing with beautiful architectural details, it evokes a classic appeal and yet it looks updated. I wouldn't mind calling it my dream home, what about you?

    It's those windows that get me - there is such a romance to them!

    It can't be your dream home, because it's mine!!! Okay, we can share:)
    I love almost everything, but the highlights included the living room with the sea foam green (!!!), the kitchen, and the second to last picture with the gauzy drapes and yellow brocade pillows. truly sublime!

    Oh to live in a Manor House! There is pretty much nothing I would change about this place, and that is rare! My favourite room is the dining room with that ceiling and the light timber panelled walls and insanely gorgeous dining room chairs and... and... I could go on!

    The elegance with a warmth certainly grabs you. I like the artwork hung on the mirrored wall - softens the space so much.

    It's amazing how this home is so focused on the architecture. I spent way more time looking at windows and ceilings than the furniture and that's not something I would normally say. Gorgeous space!

    A wonderful example of traditional, old world charm! The light fixtures and ceilings are beautiful. I love the soft green accents in the first two images.
    Great post!
