Before And After: A Connecticut Farm House*Part 2

Welcome to part 2 of the Connecticut Farmhouse tour.  Today, we'll take a look at the sunporch, dining room, entry hall and have a preview glimpse of the living room. Be sure to check out part 1 of the tour here.

The rattan furniture left behind by the previous owners was given a quick and inexpensive update by simply covering it with interesting textiles.  Now the sunporch is ready to provide its new owners with some old fashioned r&r. 

I love the sunporch, the dining room settee and the mantle mirror.   Many thanks to stylist Vera Abud and her clients for sharing this special home with Cocoon Home's readers.  We hope to see more of it as the transformation continues.

Before And After: A Connecticut Farmhouse Part 1

While visiting interior stylist Vera Abud last month, I had the opportunity to see a project she's currently working on:  an 1800s farm house.  Her approach modernizes the space retaining the  historic foundation of the home and honoring her clients' aesthetic.    Take a look at the master bedroom makeover and stay posted for more updates on this home.

I love the painted floors, layered bed linens, stacked books and her client's jewelry collection!  Many thanks for sharing this special home with Cocoon's readers.

A Peek Into A Berkshires' Farmhouse

With its many rooms, small yet very quaint, and wide plank floorboards that creak with every step, this house is as cozy as it is historic.  It's a complete departure from the contemporary home that shares the property surrounding it.  The only thing these two homes have in common is an amazing collection of rugs.  Take a peek into a lovely Berkshires' farmhouse.

So, if you had to choose, where would YOU stay?  In the contemporary home or the farmhouse?
