If there was ever a blank canvas for someone to create a beautiful home, this is it. I always thought that if Paloma Contrera got her hands on this house she would transform the interiors with her classic yet chic Style.
I have been crazy about Paloma Contreras‘s work lately, and her blog La Dolce Vita is a must read. Her new book, DREAM DESIGN LIVE, will sit beautifully on your coffee table and give you endless ideas if nothing else!
Clean lines. White walls. Love this look in a new construction house. Paloma’s magic…
In one of her projects, Paloma demonstrates the impact of good fixtures in a kitchen.
Loving the scale and scheme of this room.
Et Voila! Very inviting bedroom for your guests!
or something like this. High impact wall paper can make such a difference in a large bedroom.

A Jewel Box – UNDER CONTRACT
Monday, April 29, 2013The frenzied market in the last few weeks has brought buyers to their knees, throwing offers as fast as they can at houses they have barely seen. The sweet spot seems to be in in the $950,000 – $1,250,000 range – exactly where the market is thriving in many towns. This is good news for the sellers in this price point.
The even better news is that we have THE BEST HOUSE on the market in that price range now. It came on today, and we are certain all those buyers out there will agree. (The one’s who missed out on the recent bidding, or were not the lucky winners of recent “best and final offers”, will be relieved when they see this house!)
Farrow & Ball blue front door. The first of many details that make this house absolutely lovely.
13 Oak Park Avenue is super charming, fabulously renovated, and has smashing curb appeal. The three bedrooms, two and a half baths, formal living room and dining room, great ‘eat in” kitchen, family room and finished basement all come together as a “perfect jewel box”. Offered at $1,100,000 through Abigail Moore and Kim Swift at Kelly Associates. SOLD AND CLOSED.
Scale, proportion, and the large fireplace establish the
focus points for a gorgeous living room.
Beautiful details such as a classicaly modern pendant, and an excellent paint job create a sophisticated and chic dining room.
A soothing palate, and looking over beautiful Cherry blossoms; a beautiful master bedroom is always where we want to end the day.
A special nook.. A special detail in the master. It makes a wonderful spot for a desk.
“Fab Master Bath”… Need I say more? With radiant floors!
Clean lines, Carrera marble counter tops, and stainless appliances in an eat in kitchen. Simple is ALWAYS better!
“family room”, play room, den, or library. Which ever it becomes for you, it is sun filled and with windows on three sides (includes a door to the deck).
Love this second out door sitting area!
Beautiful, flat garden.
Of course, everything is always better up close. Let us know if you would like to see this fabulous house.
Call us!
Stop Right There! You gotta know right now.* – CONTRACT SIGNED

The front door. A very important place to start. The house has fantastic curb appeal.
You will not believe how charming this 1931 cape is! 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, living room, dining room and “screened in porch” all creating a fabulous flow for a party in your new house! Yes, this is our listing, but we would NEVER lead you on about something as important as a floor plan! And, yes, the we love the vintage. This is a SOLID HOUSE! We are very excited to list 60 Gardiner Street. Asking $1,099,000. Our first Brokers Open House is Thursday, April 4th. We are taking appointments starting on Thursday at 12;30. Please call us if you would like to see this fantastic house, convenient to trains, shopping and the beaches.
Generously proportioned foyer leads to dining room on one side…
And living room on the other.
Love the Viking (dark blue enamel/brass handle). You absolutely can put a hood on that if you want to. Deep counter tops and the island make for excellent cooking space. Also, the bay window lets in so much light!
The Family Room is sun filled, and has doors leading to the screened in porch as well as the wrap around deck. I can not emphasize enough how much sunlight you get in this room!
Brokers love to talk about “flat yards”. Well, we’ve got one for you, and it really is big. The gardening possibilities here abound!
YOU WILL LOVE THIS FOREVER
