Gorgeous cosy cottage in country Victoria

Living room

Aged leather sofas bring old-world charm. Adorning the mantel are old wrought iron candlesticks and a glass dome filled with walnut tree branches and moss from the garden

Library

Rich deep-brown walls lend instant cosiness, sending an invitation to relax in one of the super-comfy armchairs from Provincial Home Living.

Dining room

A French antique chandelier sets the scene in the dining room. The generous ‘Farmhouse’ table from Freedom easily accommodates a crowd.

Kitchen

A Lofra ‘Professional’ cooker and a Blanco rangehood add European good looks in the kitchen.

Kitchen

The black chimney breast adds drama, with a vintage French poster (available from All Posters) bringing a retro feel. A table and chairs found in a junk shop make a cosy breakfast spot.

An elegant French provincial-style timber bed makes a statement against a backdrop of navy and white walls.

Main bedroom

Airy neutrals create a soothing backdrop, with a Provincial Home Living bed taking centre stage.

Guest bedroom

In this bedroom, a burst of robust orange paint above the picture rail was inspired by the amber droplets in the chandelier – try Dulux ‘Tuscan Sunset’ to get the look. A handmade kantha quilt graces the elegant bed.
