    What an authentic designer! Not only is this house ga-ga, to die for, but her non-precious attitude toward her home and everything in it is AWESOME.

    This home is stunning. It feels like a coastal New England home and not a California home. Lots of inspiration.

    Rarely do I see a home tour with every…single…space designed and decorated so beautifully. Inside and out…sensational. You should be so very proud of such talent. It is not something that comes easily to the rest of us. Well done! 💫. There is a definite need for a green-with-envy emoji! 💚💚💚

    "I don't cook." Did you see that stove???? I can't imagine having 5 kids and not preparing their meals. It's an act of love every time I prepare something for them. I cook constantly and have 4 burners.😂 I wish I had her stove. The design and decore in this house are stunning.

      @lindsayo9702 Not this woman. I'm a mom. I'm naturally supposed to feed my babies. Kinda of a thing that starts on day 1. Most people don't cook because they don't want to... because it requires time and effort.

    Being an east coast girl, I love this. It's very cape cod feeling without being a theme house, you know the ones, they try to make the house look like it is from Tuscany, but never really pull it off and just looks weird, like a Hollywood set from the 80's or something. This is perfect, warm and casual. Just the way a home should be.

  • @pschoot6191

    This house has a lot of character. Lots of natural sunlight with all the windows. My favorite is the outdoor area. But especially the top tier balcony overlooking the ocean. A great idea to put the glass wall in. The spiral staircase was a plus. ❤

    What a beautiful home! Love the mural. It definitely gives a special character to the house. Agree with the curtain at the entrance door. It provides privacy and the color and texture of the fabric gives an attractive touch of color. I usually do not prefer all White House’s but there is enough color in the decoration to make it feel warm and inviting. What I like the most is that it doesn’t look like a ‘magazine home’. It has its own individual personality

    Love this home. Putting those windows in the living room was perfection. And, I was so happy when she mentioned the double hung, small slat shutters. My friend was throwing out all of her old shutters years ago , exactly like that. They stayed in my garage for years. Then I had someone frame out my large window and fit them in. I was just thinking they look outdated... not anymore! Thanks! Love the mural and stair runner. What a statement when you first walk in. I also have decor coffee table books everywhere, I can't stop collecting them . Love the dining and kitchen area. But, how do you not cook with 5 children? I want to know that secret! Everything about this home is warm and cozy, yet stylish.

California beach life can often require extra work due to the exposure, but your choices in fabrics and wall coverings and many new windows make it all worth it. Thank you for sharing your home with us. (And yes having central air even at the beach is very welcomed)

    beautiful home. Love the drapes that cover the front door. Very VERY English..... I just love the wallpaper in your bedroom. I'm considering this for the eating area of my kitchen. Love the Roman shades everywhere and I love the off white drapes on black rods. I did the same! It makes every room very "upscale". Fun fact: I used to work with Patrick Wade and Dave Demattei at Lucky Jeans. What I don't love is that you have the fireplace on even if it's very warm and crank the AC to offset the heat. that's a little tone deaf for me considering the global climate crisis. Overall I think you did a great job but it sounds like you are already thinking of moving on to the next home. Good luck!

    How do you not get sad when you have to leave a home? We sold our home in a beautiful forest area that was a similar size… I got so overwhelmed by the size of it and having to clean it that we swung from that 1700 sq ft house to a 750 sq ft house. I’m sad we left it, it had a beautiful view of the lake.
