This Stone Farmhouse Is Made for Curling Up With Tea
Courtesy of Christie's Real Estate There's something very comforting about a stone home that's clearly built to survive. This farmhouse in Yeovil, England was built way back in the late 18th century and boasts a classic and timeless exterior. But inside, it's a different story.
As soon as you enter you'll notice the adorably bright and cheerful color palette — starting with the blue walls and marsala-colored rugs in the ginormous entryway. But our favorite room is actually one of the smallest spaces in the home: the kitchen. A galley layout makes it a bit tight, but clever storage throughout (like the shelving above the stovetop and a ladder for pots to hang from on the back wall) makes it bearable and beautiful.
While this home has had several additions over the years — including adding a linking house and converting a piggery (yes, that's a real word) into living space — it still boasts some of the home's original details, like shutters and flooring in the sitting room. And even though the dining room is small, a gorgeous sunroom with stone walls and a glass ceiling more than makes up for it.
