As you enter, you would be welcomed by a small feature table with a simple, but beautiful mirror over it, to check your beach hair for foreign objects! Simple black and white photos of Summers past would adorn the wall. Definitely white washed floors for carefree living throughout.
Come Summer time, we would welcome it in by throwing the doors open, putting away the quilts and pulling out aquas, faded blues and greens and picking the wild flowers from our field which has come to life.
An all white kitchen that has some interesting features will be a pleasure to cook in. Bin pull handles on the drawers and small knobs for the doors in a brushed aluminium, loads of wicker baskets, wicker blinds and hints of fresh blue and white china here and there.
A wonderfully fresh beaded board bathroom, with either reclaimed flagstone flooring or lime washed wood would be perfect for sandy feet to be cleaned. Loads of wicker and simple finishes everywhere else remind you of where you are.
Still, I can’t go past a white claw foot to soak a long days swimming away.
I must admit, our own bedroom is what I could imagine here in this virtual beach house. Except there would boat oars above the bed or a really peaceful and calm beach painting with straw colour grass swaying in the foreground.
My perfect outdoor room. Imagine having carefree Bar-b-ques and a glass of wine out here? I would take out the can lights (down lights) and just have hurricane lamps, candles and a white washed chandelier in this space.

Great inspiration! A beach house is my dream.
a magical dream home for sure
That’s a beautiful wish if ever I did see one! I love not only the house and interior, but the wild flower field and that mossy boat ramp with the grey skies…. Ahhhh!

I love it, when can I move in?
That outdoor space took my breath away…my husband has just gone to see if we too could fit in shutters for our french doors! Love your post and ideas.x
Wouldn’t it be loverly!… I will bookmark that outdoor photo for some inspiration for my new deck and i just adore the way the maps have been pasted haphazardly on the wall of the boy’s room.
