Have you always wanted a sunroom?  I want THIS cottagey, vintagey sunroom, very much!

 

First, here's a shot of a bit of the white brick cottage from the outside:

Shutters, and lace curtains, ahhh.

 

A few views of the sunroom:

Dreamy.  Brick floors would be great for plant spills, too.

 

The dining room:

A glimpse of the kitchen:

Wonderful wicker day bed or couch, tucked in a guest room:

 

And one of the best little bathrooms-- I just love this:

Comfy, "undone" bed in master:

The garden looks like it would be pretty relaxing too.

 

I find the cottage a bit warmer, and more romantic than some current cottage and farmhouse interiors.  True, there's lots of white slipcovering (but practical me likes that) and white wood, but she isn't afraid to have color on her walls, yay.  The kitchen leans creamy too, rather than stark white.

 

My so-called style, if I have one, is traditional cottage, minus frills, but with a slight 'flea markety' feeling.  I could so easily live here, with just a few of my own kitschy tweaks!

It's totally not my style, but I like it.

It's lovely. I like the shabby chic , vintage look. Although I would have a different couch color and bedroom spread. Seems like it would be too hard to keep clean.

You said it, @Oznell , dreamy.

Only needing a few personal tweaks, but not too many.

I would love to know the paint color in the dining room.  So pretty!

I do get the feel of a country cottage so I must like it for that type of home.

So pretty and romantic.  I could live there, my DH would definitely not like it.

I like that yummy "espresso milkshake" color too, @GSPgirl.  I wish I knew what it was, but it almost gives me the feeling of "Manchester Tan" by Benjamin Moore....

Some nice spaces and some nice elements, but leans a bit too far on the shabby chic side for me... Never was a fan of the shabby chic look...
