My French Country Home by Sharon Santoni

gentle country living





This home, spotted in south east England, demonstrates the universal appeal of elegant and comfortable living.  A gentle mix of antique and contemporary pieces, an english touch with generous curtains and florals....
 
 





 
 
light pouring in through wide windows, comfortable seating ...






a large and bright kitchen, almost certainly the hub of family life
 
 


 
 
light is a feature here, breakfast at this table has to be good





 
 
 
and the same comfortable approach continues into the garden, with the space laid out in 'rooms', and plenty of scattered seating.

  10. It's hard to say which room is my favorite. They are all so beautiful, but the white bedroom and the kitchen with its lovely island are making me swoon.

  11. Absolutely stunning! I love the kitchen with the open shelves and the bedroom refined but yet can easily be lived in.

  12. This is so bright and sunny for England. Love the pleached hornbeam trees in the garden, they will create a wall to the garden rooms when completely grown.

  16. That is a lovely home. So glad to see soft colors and not a chintz laden home. I bet it is owned by someone young!

  18. Thank you for sharing these lovely images. It's what my own little Cotswold cottage should look like (alas, I can only aspire; I need to forget it's in California and instead envision it nestled in the English countryside!). So cozy and soothing yet also refined.
