House Crush N° 43 —Stone House

House Crush entry drive-WOW!

Stone house—the words just conjure up visions of charming English country cottage homes. You all know by now that I am an Anglophile. I love stone cottages, walls, gardens, paths—they make me smile. And this lovely stone house has it all.

The edged drive planted with hydrangea, pachysandra and boxwood leads to the walled, gravel courtyard entry planted with the same varieties of plants. ‘Welcome, please come in for a visit’ should be on a sign above the door. The many roof lines and choice of entranceways add to its curb appeal.

Charming details such as the small vents, dovecote over the garage, nailhead shutters, covered entries and stone steps stopped me immediately for a closer look. Notice the details, and maybe you can find a charming idea perfect for your home!

This stone house is so very charming.

The right side of the house has three different areas.

Dovecotes always add charm—even if they are faux.

What a cute covered side entry door—love the stone steps too.

Every golf cart needs a home, too—great shutter details.

A really close look

The left side features a walled garden and parking area.

What an entry!
