219 north cliffwood

If you aren’t familiar with Brooke Giannetti, interior designer and author of the blog, Velvet and Linen, you don’t know what you’re missing.  Brooke and her husband, Steve, an incredibly talented architect, create drop-dead gorgeous spaces, photos of which they graciously share in extensive detail on her blog. One of my personal favorites, handsdown, is a Santa Monica property, 219 North Cliffwood, which Steve designed.

The exterior is so charming, with its stone walkway, white picket fence and climbing roses.  Kind of reminds me of the house from Father of the Bride…

Love the gold grasscloth wallpaper and glass chandelier in the dining room…

…but the kitchen takes the cake for me.  The curved hood, industrial pendant lighting, butcher block countertop and soapstone farmhouse sink do an amazing job at making this brand-new space feel like it’s been around forever…

What I wouldn’t give for this butler’s pantry…

Powder room…

Master bedroom…

The view from the master bedroom…

The spectacular master bath…

LOVE the huge laundry room (which is about the same size of my kitchen).  The slate floors, gleaming white subway tile, folding area and endless cabinets and storage…genius!

The game room, gathering area and wine cellar downstairs…

The pool and outdoor sitting area is where I would spend all of my time.  Can’t you just imagine crawling onto one of those comfy couches with a book and a glass (or bottle) of wine?
