#french country house

[hometoursandotherstuff]

I simply cannot resist a house with a turret. This 1930 beauty in St. Cloud, Minnesota blends French countryside seamlessly with the finest standards and attention to detail. 3bds. 4ba. $699,900.

Original custom made doors. 

Look at the lovely arched hallway, rounded walls, tiled floors and wrought iron railings.

The sitting room has a lovely French fireplace. One door opens to the dining room and one to the beautiful sunroom.

Isn’t this a wonderful room? And, look at the size of the radiator- it’s a year round space.

The sunroom also has a door to the dining room. Look at the built-in glassware display closet. 

This is my kinda kitchen- it’s not matchy-matchy, has antique furniture taking the place of cabinetry, and original tile backsplashes. If new buyers come in and modernize this kitchen I will bitch slap them.

Look at the doorways on the upper floors.

The main bd. is spacious and has this wonderful original en-suite. Look at the fabulous tile. 

This bd. has room for a desk and it also opens to the upper terrace. 

This bath was modernized, but at least they kept the pedestal sink and original mirrored medicine cabinet.

There’s definitely potential in the attic. 

Home also offers a finished basement with a lovely brick fireplace.

Isn’t this a cute little area?

Look at the antique sink in the laundry room. I even love the radiators hanging on the ceiling.

Bonus! The house has gryphons on the upper terrace.

The property is on the banks of the Mississippi River.

Cute little shed on the property, too. It’s a great house.

MARSTON HOUSE’S WINTER HOME IN PROVENCE

[hometoursandotherstuff]

This 2002 French Provincial country estate in Shelby, North Carolina hasn't sold- it's been on the market for over 630 days. It has 4bds, 5ba and is listed for $4.9M, which they haven't reduced. I guess they're waiting for the right buyer to come along. Well, let's see if we like it.

Well, it's got a castle-like entrance hall.

Wow, this is some fancy Great Room. Look at the balconies and ceiling.

Here's a sophisticated room.

These mansions have so many sitting rooms. I guess what else would they do w/all these rooms. Nice fireplace in here.

Look at this bathroom.

Vanity table in the bathroom. They cut off the ceiling in here- it looks like it has a mural.

Dressing room/closet.

Check out the dining room. It's so fancy.

That's some kitchen island.

Wow, I wouldn't want to be the one to polish that copper.

I would say that this is the TV/family room.

Here's another staircase.

This is a cute room. It's like a game room.

Looks like a writing desk.

Wow, look at this bathroom. That must be a closet in the middle.

A whimsical child's room?

This must be the main bedroom.

Here's a natural looking pool surrounded by rocks and grass.

Except when you look at it from above.

So, there's a bridge to a patio with a fireplace, over the pool.

The estate comes with 48.6 acres of land.

Unmatched blue tones on a painted chair, slipper chair, and loveseat pillows lend the bedroom a casual air.

not to be about opera again but to be about opera again. as an art form it has the reputation of being super stuffy and something for snobs who don't know how to have fun only but honestly this was one of, perhaps even THE main theatrical entertainment for centuries. i wish people knew how hard these things can go and how engaging they can be. like characters kill and die and fight wars and (almost) commit human sacrifice left and right. characters fall in love they mourn they're ecstatic they cry they're furious it's an extremely dramatic and emotional art form! and i understand that opera does not appear approachable bc of the general conventions of the art form but i promise old works can be fun and engaging if you go watch them with some preparation beforehand (reading the libretto helps) - not to mention not all operas are old bc there are so many modern operas which engage with topical events! also the music slaps.

To be quite honest, I do not care for the c@rdverse or the FACE family trope. Why? Because it insists upon itself
