Fans of Shabby Chic and Rachel Ashwell will love our cozy cottage filled with freshly-painted vintage furniture in muted shades of ivory, pale blue and gray, mottled wall mirrors, antique perfume bottles, beaded purses, crystal chandeliers and slim French volumes. It's a bit like sneaking in to your favorite aunt's boudoir (especially if you happen to have a French one) and snooping in her drawers. Furniture prices are reasonable - $300 to $600; antique treasures and home accessories are well priced, too. Descend the stairs to find a replica of a romantic guest suite, decked out in covetable Bella Note linens (buy from stock or special order exactly what you want).
