SMALL BOATHOUSE WITH BIG COTTAGE CHARM

August 28, 2013
  • Share
charcoal gray cottage house with white trim flagstone path garden

Am partial to cottages.  I live in one.  Guess I should be partial.  I am also partial to waterfront homes.  I wish I had one.

I am also partial to champagne, sparkling headbands and jewelry, large mansions, ice cream sandwiches, quinoa, finding ways to be skinny without much effort, Rag & Bone jean leggings,  my sister, the silver pig that sits in my office, the James Perse jacket/sweatshirt/blazer cute thing I wear all of the time, there’s more…uhmmm…but I’m sure you would be bored beyond belief…so many things I am partial to but I digress (as usual).

Back to being partial to cottages and waterfront homes.  Imagine my delight when I saw this cute little summer home right on the water somewhere in Canada.  Charming. A cottage from the front…and a waterfront boathouse from the back.

Not sure I would want to live here day in and day out but I would love to spend a weekend in this charmer.  Benignly rustic and definitely cute.

What do you think…would like to live in this little cottage?  Anything you like?  Anything you would change?

Happy Wednesday!

    When I saw your comment “right on the water somewhere in Canada”, I thought to myself, “Well, that narrows it down a bit!” I can just imagine a Canadian blogger posting a picture of a home “right on the water somewhere in the United States”. I was pleased to see a little more detail on the last picture.

    Anyway, it’s gorgeous!

    I like the repeats of black and white and the brightness of it all. One might expect rustic and weathered. I’m available for a weekend visit.

    I don’t care the floor in the dining room, but I like this house.

    This exterior picture is the boat house for the cottage (on Lake Rosseau Ontario). It is not the actual cottage (which is much much larger).
