As I increasingly wish I could go 'off the grid' this is exactly the kind of place I'd like to be... Charming, comfortable, and yet practical.

Personally, I don't think the decor mirrors the house closely enough.  I don't care for the generally modern feel, although, the background is beautiful.

I absolutely love it!  Quintessentially English, especially the use of color, and the sense of ease and coziness everywhere.  What a great retreat.

Very charming!  I love all the art work and the homey feeling you get as you look at the rooms!  Very nice!

@lolakimono   Thank you for posting these photos - I feel better just looking at them.  As @stevieb said, "Charming, comfortable, and yet practical."

I tend to agree @ECBG, some of the pieces, for me, don't work. I don't necessarily think every piece in an older home has to reflect 'history', but I, for example, have no use for splayed legged mid-centuy modern tables in a house like this... Actually, when it gets right down to it, I have no use for them anywhere. Period. But expecially in a house like this... Still, overall, I find this house to be a gem...

I have to be honest~~there isn't a single thing I like about this house or its furnishings. In fact, it evokes a smell of mustiness and mothballs.

Truly at a loss for words....every picture is better than the last and they are all right up my alley!  I would change out the night table in Master Bedroom and blue drapes in Guest Bedroom. Overall, the colors, the wallpaper, the rustic beams and beautiful paneling...magnificent in every sense of the word!

I don't mind the style of the house furnishings but there is just way too much stuff in the house for me.  I'd cut the furnishings and knick knacks/photos by about 40-50% and would like it better.
