Look here and your eyes are immediately drawn to that stunning, textured brick fireplace. It curves and rises with such dramatic flair, becoming the undeniable heart of the room. Then, a jolt of pure sunshine in the form of that vibrant contemporary mustard yellow armchair that adds the perfect contrast against all that earthy goodness!

The dining room is a symphony of natural wood where a long, solid wood table takes center stage, surrounded by matching wooden chairs. BUT. What strikes us the most is what you see above. Yep. That light fixture! It's like a soft, cloud-like sculpture, that has a super gentle glow. Your gaze is then effortlessly drawn through to the kitchen, showcasing those warm wood cabinets and a window that frames a vibrant green outdoor scene.

The bedroom has a real focus on natural light and the most calming colors. Those large windows frame the greenery outside like living artwork which what makes this room beautiful to sleep in. Take note of the style of wall art, not something you imagine to be in a space like this but it somehow works!

And now, the bathroom! We love those teal penny tiles that scatter the bathroom walls, and that luxurious marble countertop with its integrated sink screams elegance! Not particularly fans of the mirrored cabinets but the delicate brass frames do enhance the sense of spaciousness and beautifully reflect the soft glow of that multi-bulb pendant light.

All in all, the extensive use of wood, brick, and stone creates a strong connection to nature and imbues the home with warmth and texture. Each and every space feels intentional and designed to promote a sense of peace and well being and we are here for it!
