Yes, isn’t that butterfly mosaic countertop in the bathroom fabulous? Why doesn’t everyone have one of these? Butterflies, lollipops, rainbows, puppy dogs….

Thanks so much for posting this. I love this house. I just wish I could afford it lol.The cork floors and light fixtures are so great plus all the natural light and that mosaic butterfly counter in the bath are just fabulous. I hate to think someone will buy this beauty and then gut it. Just the thought of that makes me shudder.

OMG, that foyer! With the dream of every MCM home shopper … an indoor/outdoor planter. Sigh.

Here’s a tragi-comic blog entry with one of the most heinous abuses ever of the coveted indoor planter:

Like the Barenaked Ladies song “If I Had a Million Dollars” If I HAD a million dollars I’d buy up all theses incredible time capsules and preserve them for all of us! (:

Great house. Love all the windows! Wish I had that big window in my kitchen. Great fireplace area too. Oh, we’re having a chimney sweep coming today to get us ready for the winter. Got to keep these fireplaces working!
