THE COTTAGE

Lovingly referred to as “the cottage,” this three bedroom, shingle style located in Watch Hill serves as a comfortably stylish crash pad for the owners’ children and grandchildren (and sits a stone’s throw away from its grander sister). Slipcovers in life-proof fabrics — complete with whimsical ruffles! — and accents in turquoise and greens are effortlessly woven throughout the adorable abode. Eclectic art and vintage pieces are mixed in, side and dining tables were found locally and professionally sprayed with white paint. Texture and playful patterns speak to the young, hip family who look forward to spending their leisure time here. Featured in “BetterHomes & Gardens” and “Coastal Living” magazines.
