Love this house! What are the wall sconces in the hallway off the kitchen?

So lovely TDF and so lovely sparkles

What a little stunner! I am seriously intrigued by that bathroom! The tiles? I need to see more :) kb x

What a wonderful place! Beautifully styled, but it has such a welcoming feel about it. Love the courtyard garden, love the clever use of small space (love the storage boxes in the fireplace!). A great inspiration in so many ways.

What a fantastic sense of calm freshness throughout the home. A perfectly suited colour scheme for the building and available light too. Beautiful!

I love the matt kitchen cupboards, can I ask how was that done?

Beautiful!
Does anyone know what the tree in the courtyard is? Or the plant on the outdoor table? We are attempting to make a lush green courtyard as well and I love these two features (plus everything else!)

How weird. She seems to be living my life but a lot more stylishly. I have one husband, one little girl and a pet named Pepper. Our house is a bit bigger, but hers is so much better! A beautifully inspiring way to start my Wednesday as usual.

What a wonderful home… I love that ornate occasional chair, to die for. I really need to get me a court yard… and a greener thumb! LOL

Just breathtaking – this, to me, is such a stylish and well-loved home.

Pepper seems to be saying ‘haven’t you people got better things to do?’ which gave me a giggle :-D

Absolutely gorgeous.

Such lovely comments, I am super flattered. Lucy is a darling to post and produce this little story and Felix is very talented and may I say, an extremely handsome frenchman!! Answers to the questions: The tree is a “Snow Pear” – ornamental pear species, The plant on the table is just Oregano, but lots of it grown in a rusty plough disc from the farm. All you need is a good old Sydney ‘non’ summer of rain to get this greenery!
The Bathroom tiles are spanish handmade, grouted with good old sand and cement – you can buy them from Aeria Country floors.
The cupboards in kitchen, Matt polyurethane in Dulux Namadji, shows all greasy fingerprints so beware or be friends with Murchison Hume glass cleaner!

I love Wednesday’s peek into people’s homes!

Kris – just guessing, but the wall sconces in the hallway look like part of the Artemide Tolomeo family of lights (and that looks like a Tolomeo Mega next to the lounge).

Wednesday is my favourite day at TDF! Heidi’s home is yet another incredibly stylish addition.

thanks for the show and tell x

Gorgeous Lucy! Always love a good home tour, just stunning. x

THANKS HEIDI! If only every home owner knew the exact treatment / paint colour for every surface… trust a stylist to know! x

LOVE Dulux Namadji – it’s a winner… I always have to warn clients about the joys of matt poly finishes… But really they look super fab, especially in that colour – WOW.

ciao heidi questa casa è veramente stupenda!! Ora è questo il tuo lavoro? complimenti!! una sensazione di armonia bellissimi i diversi materiali sulle tonalità del chiaro. semplice ma raffinata! complimenti!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, can you share the source for your timber floors? Simple and beautiful.

So many things to love. Do you have any details on the outdoor setting – and in particular the benches? They look ace.

Oh my goodness, foliage gets me every time. So lush and beautiful! And I adore the outside, very doll’s house :)

Thanks so much for the info on the tree/plants! I’m off to find a Snow Pear! The name somehow seems suitable where I am today as well!
Another question – that beautiful bed… where did you find that?
Amazing house! Thanks for letting us peek inside

I know this comment comes very late after Heidi’s house was posted, but I loooove the courtyard and wondered if I could find out what the paving material is? Is it just a concrete thats been sandblasted ? or is it a stone?
Hoping someone can help.
Thanks

LUV, LUV, this stunning wee house; one can feel the vibe just looking at these stunning pics, truely awesome

i’m late to the party too! lovely house. Like Sarah, I’d love to know what Heidi used as her courtyard paver and whether it has “worn” well?

Wow! Nice touches.

This is the house I grew-up in from 1967 as a baby. It’s original layout – the bathroom was at the rear to left , where the sliding doors are, into the middle of the big space was a wall and the kitchen, then living room where the kitchen and bathroom is now. There was no attic and the separate toilet where the little external laundry is was entered from inside.

Of course my parents had a vision and wanted to do some alterations. I remember my dad building the attic and he was no carpenter by trade. He built the bay window in the back yard and it was lift into place with a perfect fit. My mother and I up in the roof space sweeping-up all the slate dust, because that was the original roofing material. Then there was the attic ladder, one of the first in the country. This was later changed to a similar better one, but then replaced with solid stairs.

Then cam the big amalgamation of the bathroom, kitchen and living room, with walls knocked out and the chimney nearly collapsing. Lucky it didn’t! The bathroom and toilet were combined and located where it is now and the back opened-up with wall removed and the Western Red Cedar sliding door install. It makes me cry to see it has been painted over. The wall was cut out of the old separate toilet and the internal one filled to create a cute external laundry.

As a young adult, my mum still lived there and I replaced the ceilings in the two front bedrooms – there was still plenty of slate dust – what a job it was dropping the old wood ribbed plaster out.

Oh the memories and nice job on the work since mum sold the place in 2007. That little house has had quite a journey – and good luck with the sale.
