My addition will be a modest one compared to many.
but....I love this little gem, and want to share...
Welcome to our back yard...amidst the banana trees (no monkeys...I think) and
tropical jungle gone a tad wild... where we are lucky to have a hidden
little gem of a guest cottage or casita. It tucks quietly behind our main house, and is a jewel of coral and persimmon color.
That my Mom (Grandma B) has made her own!
Yep, even better than living down the road...
she lives down the path.
You enter into an enclosed
courtyard with a gated entrance(
ooooh)
and a
vine covered arbor...
...That opens to a
winding path...
That unfolds to the
little Casita...with a barrel tile roof
and working shutters...
When you enter the
cottage, you step into a great room...
strong Beams above.
A
funky little fireplace in the corner...
One wall is all window/door...open to the
palms and tropical fruit...
The
tiny kitchen is on one side of this great room...
open to living
Old
european furniture is at home amongst the white walls and beams
....A small hallway leads to
one of the
two bedrooms...
Spanish Birth chairs are alwyas ready for a game of
chess (talk about multi-tasking!)
...back outside Palm fronds
cool ... Birds sing
Translation: Home
sweet home.
Perfect...But...let me tell ya....
Said grandma can also make an amazing martini!
A-MAZing!
