Anyone else struck by her stunning beauty and smarts?!? I just love her style and reuse of antiques. Smart and beautiful both the cottage and the owner.

[@MeanOldLady]

What beauty? She's pickled from decades in the sun & smoking. People have no sense of what's actually attractive & natural anymore...

[@rinare1807]

Old windows with counterweights are stellar. I was blessed to have those in my apartment as a college student. I wish windows were all made that way still--they operate so smoothly and are so very functional.

Me too! It's beautiful 😍

[@obelus5985]

You might consider a SolaTube in the bath. They don't allow heat or cold, like a skylight, but provide a tremendous amount of natural daylight. Some come with a solar night light for evening as well. We've installed three over the years and they are WONDERFUL.

I think this is just their retirement project. From a few things she said-it's on their ranch and there may be more than one tiny house. They did a great job-the cottage is beautiful!

Inspired by this homeowner and her emphasis on older windows, sinks, etc...I miss quality and craftsmanship in homes from times gone by. Very pretty home. Thank you for sharing.

[@brandielambright460]

I agree! Today’s homes are so very cookie cutter.

[@qmnnvrdyz8965]

Man, do I agree! Besides being very bland, none of this stuff is made to last, from the windows/doors, to the furnace. Pretty much garbage! It's sad, frustrating, and ironically, more expensive, which is a real kick in the pants.

[@annwithaplan9766]

I agree, too. I lived in an old house with nothing but windows like that. Loved it. I now live in a very old, small house, but the owners replaced all the windows with the Pella types. Although they're double pane, they're a pain in the neck to lock correctly.

[@patsysadowski1546]

I’m English and we value those old techniques deeply here. You are lucky that in the US you can pick up bargains as many don’t understand or appreciate the craftsmanship. I’m afraid those beautiful sash windows would have cost thousands here in London reclaimed.

So a house rather than a tiny house.

Actually... as it is it more qualifies as a small house / cottage than a "Tiny house.

@@codename495 many tiny homes have closets. Maybe not always in the bedroom but they still have them. And have laundry and bigger kitchen without having the couch so close to the oven.

What an eye for design this woman has! My 1917 built house on Long Island originally had those weight and pulley windows, but they would never stay up unless they were fully opened. They always had to be propped up to stay at whatever height we wanted. We replaced them with double-paned insulated ones.
