I LOVE this house. Well mostly, I LOVE THIS KITCHEN. NO, mostly, I love the whole house. But I especially LOVE the kitchen. And I have to say that of all the homes I’ve found, it’s rare to find one updated and decorated up here in a way that doesn’t make me cringe! Maybe it’s …
Sunday House Crush // Old North Shore Estate on the Lake
I’m having so much fun with these Sunday house crush posts because it really gives me a chance to peek around the real estate on the mountain, especially into areas I can’t go by car or foot! There are so many really amazing places up here that you never really know about unless maybe you’re …
Sunday House Crush // Liberace’s Mountain Home
I stumbled upon this listing and found my jaw dropping at each consecutive click to the next photo, because I’ve never seen anything like this house up here (in Lake Arrowhead). It just sort of seems out of place among all the very cabin style mountain homes -though it is trying to keep a mountain …
Sunday House Crush // Open Floor Plan & Windows!
I am slightly OBSESSED with this mountain house. I LOVE the layout and open floor plan and I love most of the upgrades done to it, which is rare. Oftentimes I’d rather just find a really cool place that hasn’t been touched, but this place is move-in ready. I would make a few small changes, …
Sunday House Crush // French Chateau Estate on the Lake
This house is incredible and the photos do NOT do it justice! It’s in the Palisades, just minutes from my house and I pass it when I take the walk along the lake instead of the lanes… and every time I stop at it because the location and view of the lake from this point …
Sunday Property Crush // Robin Hood Lane Dream Estate
I was nosing around Zillow’s homes for sale in my area again (Lake Arrowhead) and stumbled upon this incredible French Normandy-style lakefront “masterpiece” which, according to the listing, blends classic Old World architecture with state-of-the-art amenities. Not only that, this dreamy estate is located on the tip of its very own private peninsula right on …
House Crush // 11 Cornwall Road Country Guest House
My first “House Crush” posts centered entirely around homes nearby where I lived in Lake Arrowhead… I figured since I was looking at homes anyway, it would be a fun way to sort of share a little bit of the process with you… (I’m still not sure if I’m staying in my house or moving, …
Sunday House Crush // Lake Arrowhead “Aspen” Estate
This Aspen Inspired Private Luxury Mountain Retreat ( via Zillow ) was recently sold in September, but it still popped up in my recommended local homes email, because obviously at $2,875,000, it’s totally in my price range 😉 and I’m crushing on it… HARD. At 5 beds 5 baths and 5,495 sqft, it’s not a …
House Hunting Again // Living in Lake Arrowhead, CA
I’ve shared in a few posts about having to sell my house… Things have changed a little bit and I have a choice to stay, though it’s an expensive one, and as quickly as I can usually make decisions, the choice to stay in this house or to sell it and move is one that …
The Enchanted Cottage…
The husband and I have upped our weekly walks and hikes to almost daily now and if you follow me on Instagram, Facebook, or read my weekly Instagram updates, you’ll see I’ve started a new series/feature called “Houses in the Woods”, wherein I post photos of houses in our new woodsy location, Lake Arrowhead. Since …
House Hunting: A Renovated 60’s Palace in Lake Elsinore
In our quest to find our dream house {Spanish style homes or houses built in the late 50’s-early 60’s}, which are millions of dollars in Los Angeles and under $400K everywhere else in between here and NYC, it seems, the husband and I have begun looking just outside LA to hopefully find something comparable. I …
In the Land of Palm Springs & Rancho Mirage…
One of the main reasons the husband and I decided on a little vacation in Palm Springs a few weeks ago was to see if it was a place we’d maybe like to buy a home in {read this post to catch up}. And while we were there, I was very much in love with …
60’s Modern Home in Palm Springs
My love affair with Palm Springs grew exponentially when I stumbled upon this 60’s modern desert home designed originally by William F. Cody and revamped recently by Michael Haverland. The modern 60’s twist on the original house is kind of amazing and the decor, divine. Found originally at Full House Photos via Architectural Digest France, …
House Hunting: It’s That Time
The year has finally come. The husband and I have been saving and saving and SAVING our pennies and watching and waiting out the real estate market for the last 6 years. And now is the time to finally buy a house. Loving the home and location we are presently in, we thought we’d actually …
Seriously, When Can We Move In?
I Stumbled upon this amazing architecture/decor & home site 1 Kind Design about 20 minutes ago via dwellinggawker and began Pinning like a wild woman. I loved everything I laid my eyes on. I actually scrapped my original post idea when I clicked on Scandinavian Home Gets a Shabby Chic Makeover because I fell so …
