It's remarkable how many still-functional, centuries' old houses America has. This one is from the 1720's, in history-rich Litchfield, Connecticut.
The front door of the historic house is painted in Farrow and Ball's "Inchyra Blue"--
The old beamed living room is cozy and rustic, but also a little bit refined, with its classic English roll arm sofa. Love the inclusion of the eclectic leather director's chair too.
Just around the corner, is what the owners call the sitting room, with its massive hearth and granite lintel. The ancient posts are hand-hewn.
The sturdy coffee table in front of the fire is all ready with various games to play--
Look at those floor boards. Some in the house are of chestnut--
The kitchen's satiny, wide floor boards are also fab. I love the gray-green color chosen for the cabinets-- it seems so soft and natural in here.
This guest bedroom is one I'd love to stay in-- it also has the feeling of a comfortable library...
Another bedroom....
Honed marble is classic in a guest bathroom--
It's so nice to have the choice of a close-in patio, but also....
...a shaded eating area under a pergola and overlooking the rolling fields.
I enjoy the quirks in this house, the age, and the air of ease that the structure has, despite its history. It's easy to miss the detail and the interesting finishes in the "squinched-down" images posted here-- lightly double tapping the pictures in this case should make a difference.
