I love the first picture of the house and the lavender flowers cascading over it.  You want to go inside and sit with a cup of coffee or tea.

Pretty but way too cluttered for my taste.

I subscribed to the very first Victoria magazine way back when.

 

We were building our brick Victorian at the time, and I found our house plan, light fixtures and other items through companies that advertised there.  

 

This was long before the Internet and finding Victorian styled products was nearly impossible -- espcially our house plans.

 

I still love the magazine, but it has been many years since I received it.

 

Thanks for posting such lovely pictures.

So charming!   Love the blend of indoors and out (flowers, stone floors, al fresco dining, etc.) and the suggestion of leisurely, graceful living in French design...

What beautiful inviting pictures. I want to stay there but I want someone else to clean it.

Very pretty but too much foo foo for me and my DH would hate it.
