I am seriously gushing over this Coastal Retreat in Jamestown, Rhode Island. As you arrive, the house sits far down a winding driveway, sea grass that lines the driveway, is swaying in the beautiful ocean breeze. This house is designed by DiMauro Architects, has every lovely detail a coastal retreat requires to be a restful sanctuary. My favorite details in a beach house are windows with pretty details, a lovely nook with the sun shining on me, where I can spend an hour reading, an open kitchen with so much natural light shining in and the who doesn't want an amazing stone fireplace to cook pizza? ... A beautiful and a definite luxurious splurge, but my favorite place in this beach house is in the backyard, the terrace sits high above the water, I would sit out there with a refreshing cocktail, a seabreeze would be perfect, I would day dream while I watched the the white sailboats dance in wind. This backyard is simply stunning, every detail from the grey slate terrace, the outdoor bar, beautiful pool, rambling stone walls showcasing the vivid colorful and glorious wild flowers, which was designed by landscape designer, Atlantic Lawn and Garden. The amazing photographs were captured by Warren Jagger.

Kennebuckport, Maine is one of my favorite little towns in New England. I love the quaint beach houses that line the rocky Maine coast and harbors filled with old school wooden sailboats, a downtown square filled with little shops, and I may add I found a spot to sit outside with a cold beer and a delicious lobster salad roll and enjoy the fresh Maine air.
Interior Designer, Cortney Bishop is a South Carolina designer, and her design philosophy is that she is deeply motivated in creating an house that is tailor-made for your vision and that when you walk through the door you say "Welcome Home". I do find that I am drawn to houses that I feel I would be very happy living in...or be blessed to call home. I can imagine life here...so true to her philosophy she succeeded with me because she wants her clients to feel at ease in their home and feel inspired to live life there... So inspired and so Beach Pretty!
