SULLINGSTEAD ~ SURREY, ENGLAND

While in Birmingham this weekend, I picked up a copy of the British House and Garden.  House and Garden has always been one of my favorite publications, and this issue did not disappoint!

Built in 1897, Sullingstead was one of the first homes designed by Edwin Lutyens in the beautiful town Surrey, England.  Surrey is only a few miles from London, and if you saw the movie The Holiday, you will be familiar with this little town.  I would be embarrassed to tell you how many times I have watched this movie, which happens to be one of my favorites.

The latest owners wanted to restore the home to its natural beauty, hiring Michael Edwards as the architect, and John Minshaw as the interior designer.  What resulted was a luscious home abounding in past and present character.  ENJOY!

I hope that you have enjoyed this tour!

See you soon,

This beautiful estate was restored and designed by Axel Vervoordt on a hill northwest of Bordeaux.  These photographs cannot properly capture the beauty of this majestic estate.  ENJOY!

Do you agree with me when I say that this home and the grounds are spectacular?

See you soon,

GOING GREEN ON THE UPPER EAST SIDE

This 45th floor aerie on the upper east side, designed by Hariri & Hariri, is a sustainable home.  If I were going to design a green home, I could get some beautiful ideas from this modern home.  I am certain that you would agree that this real estate comes complete  with a spectacular view.

ATLANTA MAKEOVER

When this showed up in my inbox, I knew that the Labor Day weekend was getting off to a beautiful and early start!  Designer Amy Morris remodeled this 4800 square foot home in Atlanta, Georgia for her parents, Daphne and Alex Davis.

Of course I love the hues in this home, as brown and gray tones are my favorite.  I hope that you ENJOY this tour as much as I did.
