It’s completed (effectively, the primary development is completed, however extra will nonetheless be labored on outdoors). My mother and father at the moment are dwelling within the Tiny Cottage (SO EXCITING!), however earlier than they acquired in and settled I snapped just a few fast pics so you may see how lovely it’s even empty! To not fear, although, when you love this tiny cottage as a lot as I do, my mother will let me share it many times, so this gained’t be the final you’ll see of it. 🙂
In the event you’re new right here, this Tiny Cottage is definitely part of our dwelling, you’ll be able to enter it by means of our mudroom or storage. Nonetheless, it’s a self-sufficient dwelling! It’s actually a Tiny Cottage at about 450 sq. toes but it surely has its personal outdoors entry, DARLING kitchenette, toilet/laundry, mattress nook, sitting space, outside deck and backyard.
Did I point out it’s CUTE AS A BUTTON? However you’ll be able to see that for your self!
The Tiny Cottage was designed as a spot for my mother and father to reside in full time however additionally it is a part of the primary dwelling. Better of all worlds! It is also a helpful area that might serve household in varied methods for years to come back. We prefer to say we reside in our trip dwelling. That is our one and solely dwelling but it surely’s inside strolling distance of the seaside so it actually looks like you’re on trip each day.
The sitting space of the Tiny Cottage with its peaked ceiling, chandelier, white planked partitions and charming blue hearth is so inviting, it’ll be wonderful to take pleasure in it in each season. The sunshine is fantastic in right here and I like the view of the timber outdoors– and within the winter when it snows (which is normally just for per week or so) the view by means of these home windows shall be equally as unbelievable! Quickly there shall be crops and furnishings outdoors, too.
One other enjoyable characteristic on this sitting room is that this in-built cupboard, designed by my mother and father particularly as a complement to the kitchen for storage, a espresso station for his or her espresso machine and a spot for his or her toaster oven. It has a tiled top. And their Frame TV goes on the wall above it. Small area PERFECTION!
A captivating kitchenette is tucked away and such a pleasant shock to stroll into it! It’s gentle and shiny with home windows overlooking the Tiny Backyard and window containers. I like the entire cottage-y components my mother selected — from the vintage-inspired home equipment, to the tile to the blue cupboards to the copper {hardware} to the enjoyable show cabinets, deep windowsills and plant nooks! I can’t wait to see how she decorates in right here.
I like the toilet / laundry room — it has the smartest washer/dryer combo (small area dream!) and helpful storage, too.
Enjoyable truth, this subway tile is definitely the identical tile we had in our previous grey and white kitchen! We had some left over they usually purchased extra to complete it off. (Ours was known as Arctic White #0190 however there’s the same colour here)
The medicine cabinet has lights and mirrors inside and outside, plus a elaborate defogging characteristic! The ceiling has an exhaust fan with a heat light so it’ll be hotter in right here within the chilly months.
She swapped out the self-importance knobs for these white knobs, it’s tremendous cute! (The opposite pictures on this put up had been taken earlier than the knob change!)
The mattress nook was a bit difficult to design inside the accessible area, however with cautious planning by my mother and father, they’ve a snug spot for sleeping and free standing cupboards that shall be added. SO CUTE!
Hope you loved a peek on the Tiny Cottage! I’ll share extra as soon as they get settled in.
