House Envy


I have a wish-list of the things I would want in my dream home, money no object. Large open rooms, a beautiful view, ginormous walk-in closets...you name it, I have dreamt it, pin'ed it and told my husband about it (you know...for future reference)! Recently I came across the home listing of a gorgeous Brooklyn brownstone belonging to Jenna Lyons, President/Creative Director at J.Crew. Check out these photos of her lovely abode (courtesy of Sotheby's) and you can see why my heart was all a-flutter...








Isn't it lovely?? What a space.
I could totally envision myself living there and making it our home.
Now if I could only find $3,750,000 and it could be mine!

Wow! I don't really know the word to describe how pretty this house is..
I have a dream house in mind too..only in my dream I have the $$ too! This is inspiring me to dream bigger!

@Jessica - I love big, open kitchens! I am not a huge fan of cooking, but I think that special kind of space would inspire me to cook moore often ;)

@Cheryl - Yeah me too! Life would be pretty awesome if we had the means to make any of our dreams come true! :)

Wouldn't it be lovely to live there! But really the price tag is a bit hefty I think even for her house :)

Hope you had a great weekend!!

LOL - indeed it does look amazing. I am pretty lax about this house thing. I just want a ginormous walk in room and I am all set. HAHAHA.

What a lovely home. I love the black wood floors with the white walls. Very elegant.
