I have mentioned before that North Carolina is one of my favorite states.
I grew up in North Georgia, about thirty miles from the NC state line.
My husband and I dream of living close to those mountains again someday.
One of our favorite hikes ever was in Cashiers, North Carolina.
Crisp Fall weather and gorgeous waterfalls made for some great memories!
The Cow Rock Cottage is built in that great little city, and it was featured in Southern Living back in 2009.
I can literally picture myself drinking a fresh cup of coffee and reading my favorite book on that dock.
I love those punches of green in the family room, and the built-ins on the wall in the living room are amazing!
This house and these mountains and that dock sitting on the water...
yeah...that pretty much sums up what I dream of when I close my eyes and let my mind wander.
What about this home inspires you?








Oh My Gosh that is sooo beautiful. We've been to North Carolina once and really liked it, but never to the mountains. I love all the natural exposed wood in this home. The whole thing is just so inspiring.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is gorgeous! I'm gonna show this to my girlfriend that just bought a home on a lake. Just lovely. I love the sofa, the wood beams, the wall color. All the rustic touches mixed with the tailored furniture. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteJust looking at the outside makes you want to come in and relax.
ReplyDeleteMorning coffee on that adorable adirondak chair right on the water . . . oh my.

My son is going to school in NC and LOVES it there! He has informed us that he is planning to live there after graduation and we can visit whenever we'd like.
ReplyDeleteWe have a Tudor style home and I want it to look just like that!

Woohoo! Shout out for NC! :) I've lived here my whole life and will never live anywhere else. Both the mountains AND the beach are just a quick drive away (depending on where you live). But yes. The mountains are goooorgeous. I've never been to this particular area, but you've made me want to visit!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a mountain home to go to, especially in the fall. My g'parents always had a mountain home, and it was wonderful going there as a kid.
As for the cabin, I love the dining room! I'm a sucker for the fancy dining rooms. :) Also love that lake out back. So pretty!
I love it all. The beadboard ceiling and wide planked walls. The warm brown in the family room. All the sweet touches that make it homey. OH and that deck in the woods. I can see why you dream of such a place:)
ReplyDeleteOh how lovely. It looks so cozy and that scenery is amazing :)
ReplyDeleteooooh I love that lamp in the 2nd pic and the winbacks in the 3rd pic and that basket hanging on the wall in the 4th.. and on and on :)
ReplyDeleteWasn't Grey's kinda lame last night?
Hey! I ran onto a new singer I <3 here is the link... just wanted to share - she's fab.

Great house! Love the white painted ceilings in the living room photo! Kitchen inspiration for sure!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty partial to North Carolina. I love living here. After I travel, I'm always excited to come home. It's beautiful all over the state, but especially in the mountains during the fall. :)
