It wasn’t always so pretty and bright. In the not too distant past, this cheery home turned Indiana bed and breakfast was neglected. Falling apart. An eyesore. It’s hard to imagine that this charming house was once on the verge of demolition!
In fact, it took two years of restoration to change the status of the 1894 Victorian from “condemned” to “delightful!” Am I ever glad they did!
The key word here is comfort! Or, perhaps, it could be bright.. Or airy! There’s a few I could easily and interchangeably use. Birds are, however, very much on the brain here. It just fits! In fact, one mama Robin seems to have taken the bird theme to heart–she appears every year, building her nest above or near the front door. I’m not sure who was startled more this morning–her or me!

I spent the bulk of my time divided between the dining room, the kitchen, the front porch, and the backyard. One look at each of them and you can see why I had so much trouble deciding where to hang out.You’ll find a nice selection of family board games in the hutch where the TV is kept. A very good assortment of teas, hot chocolate, and coffees await you in the kitchen. You know Kid #2 has a thing for “hot tea” and Kid #1 was all about the White Chocolate Hot Chocolate.
That kitchen was so cozy! Tall cabinets constructed to mimic the lovely built-in cupboard are wonderful–and feel like they could have been there all along. It’s a clever, clever touch!
