We're in the midst of winter hibernation here, it's been ridiculously cold...I get through it by dreaming of being transported to sunny destinations, like southern Cali
Last Spring my oldest and dearest friend and her husband bought a charming 1800 Victorian farmhouse in Carpenteria, CA ~ The Linden House
They completely renovated it and bathed it in creamy whites and beachy hues ~ the perfect beach cottage with it's bright sunny interior and comfy furnishings
Every bit of it so fresh, cheery, and inviting
I absolutely love how she decorated ~ brimming with coastal charm!
Three bedrooms in all, perfect for a family getaway...or girlfriend trip
What's more inviting than a front porch to sit and watch passers-by, and another more secluded for reading or taking a cat nap
The train stops in the quaint downtown; potentially you could go car-less and just hop on a beach cruiser to get wherever you'd like to go
Maybe bring a picnic to the beautiful beach
Or take a stroll downtown and browse the
antique shops for treasures, or the farmer's market
Sweet sunny perfection in an unspoiled surf town...wish we were there!

Oh this cottage is absolutely to die for. I live where it is sunny, AZ, but that place still looks great to me.
I love the crisp colors. Makes me want to go there immediately.
Totally jealous of your friend's hoime, love her style, but also she is one lucky duck to have a true vintage home. I adore how the clean light just fills the rooms, one can almost smell the salt air from the photos. Blessings ~ Eileen @ Star's Fault
