California French Cottage Follow-up

Last August, I posted about my friend, Claire’s beautiful home here on 
Lido Isle in Newport Beach, California.  
 Claire had some professional photographs taken recently by Coplin & Sacks Creative
and I want to show them to you.
We love to gather in this cozy breakfast nook.
This is Claire’s office for her jewelry making business.  It is adjacent to the kitchen.
This is the upstairs Jack and Jill bathroom.
 Above is their son’s room and below is the master bedroom.  

Here is the living/family room.
This is the renovated kitchen that our friend, Debbie Duggan helped Claire create.

The winner of the Valentine giveaway is Faith.

For the full story of Claire’s California French cottage,

Best wishes.

    Beautiful home and wonderfully balanced! What type of carpeting did Claire use in her master bedroom and her son's? I love its casual feel!

  2. Dang it…your friends have nice houses!!! This one is stunning and I would kill for that office!

  3. What a beautiful home! It seems like the perfect mix between formal and casual, elegant and relaxed. Perfect for a holiday home I think 🙂 Love your blog Mary Ann!

  4. The whole house is stunning – am coveting that master bedroom with the fabulous beams! Thanks for sharing.

  5. Yes, the master, with the beamed ceilings, is fantastic! My favorite, with the kitchen coming in, a close second! Love the settee in her kitchen nook too! Beautiful!

    Just noticed your new profile picture! Very nice! It's probably been there for ages and I just noticed!

  6. Such a gorgeous yet liveable home…my favorite is the Master Bedroom and I love the kitchen, too. And on top of all of this is that wonderful and enviable location…love Lido Isle…my first apartment was at Promontory Point…is it still there?

  19. What an absolutely beautiful home – what a treat to be able to see it! The details are flawless and everything flows together perfectly! Tell her thank you for letting you share it ;D

  20. I absolutely adore her home – warm and inviting. The wall to wall seagrass looks fabulous (I've been thinking about doing that in a room, so it's on the brain), and I love the banquette!!

  21. I adore Claire's home. I love her ceilings in the master and her sons room…all beautiful wood and NO overhead lighting. I love her office with the long counter and the settee, her inspiration board with sconces. I love the bones of this house and the way she has filled it with lovely pieces…I think I've pinned almost every room.

  23. Beautiful! So fresh and bright. I love her work area with that settee. Thanks for sharing this lovely home.

  24. What a gorgeous home. I am in love with those barstools, and the texture of the woven wood shade over the cane accent on the settee in the office is fantastic. Thanks for sharing — great inspiration.

  25. I remember this gorgeous house, and it's nice to get another look at it! I absolutely love the ceiling and fireplace in the master bedroom.

  26. What a lovely home, thank you for sharing. Definitely makes me want to have professional interior shots taken (…one day, when the house is finished!).

  27. I LOVED this home when you posted it last summer and I love it even more now!! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

  28. Wow–I remember this home and can see why she had it professionally shot. Gorgeous. I'm curious–do you know if she has two of those Draper chests flanking her bed? That picture suddenly gave me an idea–there's a chest like that on CL but only one. Wonder if I could pull it off…

  29. That is one absolutely gorgeous cottage!! Love the paint color in the upstairs bathroom!

  30. That is an absolutely gorgeous home!! It belongs in a magazine! 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing it with us Mary Ann.

  40. That home is so beautiful….I love all the white, airy spaces, the gorgeous deep hardwood floor color and the sisal carpet (?) in the bedrooms! Just lovely.

  41. Gorgeous! If only developers and new builders would take a lesson on scale and features from this house.

  42. Your friends home is really beautiful. The images bring out all the lovely aspects of the design.
