Today we have a tour that we shared previously last year, and I am so thrilled to have her back. It's Stephanie from Cotton Blue Cottage, and she has a beautiful home in South Georgia that has the perfect cottage farmhouse feel.
I love the exterior for sure, but I love the farmhouse cottage interior just as much. So you all are definitely going to enjoy today's tour. Without further ado, let's get started:
This beautiful home was built back in 2018 on family land.
When it was built back in 2018, we knew we wanted a farmhouse-cottage-style home that was super simple in architecture, almost like it had been there forever.
So we incorporated a lot of shiplap and used very neutral colors.
The house has a wraparound porch out front, which is very Southern and kind of looks old with the X detailing. Thanks to all the windows and doors, you can easily see out onto the porch from inside.
Down the hallway, you enter the master bedroom area, and then you turn the corner to go upstairs.
When we designed the kitchen, we wanted it to be a major focal point. As you're walking in the front doors, it's one of the first things that you see. So we added the shiplap on the back wall as an accent and made everything else super symmetrical.
We also wanted to do open shelving as we use all of those dishes stacked there daily. The stuff on the top shelf is farmhouse cottage decor, and it's kind of simple.
We recently added this little table in the middle with a couple of bar stools underneath. It acts as extra seating or a space for talking while you are cooking since we gather in this space often.
This is the master bedroom. It's painted in Benjamin Moore's Beacon Gray.
We added some antique doors.
This is the master bathroom, which has Benjamin Moore's Lily White on the walls. It's a shade lighter than the Beacon Gray.
There's a pedestal tub, tub filler, and a marble tile on the floor.
For a little bit of change, we installed mirrors on both sides of the vanity that are heavily distressed.
We also added a towel holder that resembles the X's on the front porch.
Plus, there's a fun chandelier that draws the eyes upward.
When you get to the top of the stairs, you will see a fun hat wall that has hats from a lot of our family members. Some of them are hats that we still wear to the beach, but a lot are from family members who have passed away. It was a fun way to remember them and think about them every day.
Our youngest daughter's bedroom has a daybed with a trundle.
She has a little study area in the corner and a little bookshelf.
This is her en suite. We used Lilly Pulitzer's Elephant Bazaar by Lee Jofa wallpaper on the walls.
When you turn the corner and come down the hallway, you will see our oldest daughter's bedroom.
It was redecorated last year as she's getting a little bit older and wanted something a bit more grown-up.
So we bought in a canopy-style bed with some sheer drapes on the side.
We also added the Laura Park duvet cover and pillow.
In her bathroom, we included both beadboard and wallpaper, which is also by Lilly Pulitzer for Lee Jofa.
Stepping outside, this is the girls' playhouse. It looks similar to the main house. We built it the year we moved in.
We have an outdoor space where they like to hang out, have dinners, and entertain guests.
This is probably one of our favorite views of the house. The hips and valleys of the roofline have so many different angles. You can see a pergola and our cat, Bella, outside.
We recently planted those limelight hydrangeas. They're the miniature ones, and they get a lot of rain on this side of their house, especially since it's downhill, so they seem to do well in the summer.
