Let’s take a look inside legendary writer Patrick Leigh Fermor and his wife Joan’s Grecian home. The stunning stone house is located atop Mount Taygetus, overlooking the serene Messenian Gulf. Surrounded by ancient olive and cypress trees, the house sits between two bays for one of the most stunning views from every angle. This home was a peaceful place to get away and write for the accomplished couple.

Tucked away a few hours from Athens, the Kardamyli house embodies a blend of rustic and Tuscan. While the home is on the smaller side, the way it is furnished combined with the many windows, makes it feel open and spacious. Follow along below to take a closer look at the details of this Grecian home.

Years ago, back in 2013, I covered this wonderful two toned farmhouse style Hamptons home’s amazing kitchen on COCOCOZY (old post is here).  I loved the striking open kitchen area with a dark black painted ceiling with the color creeping down onto the walls and down below the second level clerestory windows.

Now, I just learned that new photos of this lovely East Hampton kitchen on Further Lane designed by Dan Scotti Design have surfaced!  I spotted the new snaps on designer Dan’s website and on Architectural Digest’s website too.  The home is fantastic.  Still my favorite room is the kitchen…but I am loving the pool area too.  This one is for bestie AM and her hubby JE…take a look at the pool…ideas ideas perhaps for their East Hampton outdoors….

A few months ago, on Instagram Live, I toured the iconic Beverly House, also known as The Hearst Estate. I’ve driven past this gorgeous structure hundreds of times. And I always wondered what it looked like on the inside. Then I saw a line of people on the property and realized they were having an estate sale. I immediately texted my friend, who I was on the way of meeting, telling her the change of plans. After paying the $20 fee, we were in! I decided to go live on Instagram, because I knew my followers would enjoy a mansion tour. Originally, I wanted it to be a graceful and elegant tour. Of course, it turned into a comedy thriller, because people kept following me and telling me to stop filming. I didn’t listen and kept running to the next room. Take a look inside the gorgeous house that I toured (and almost got asked to leave) below.
