THE SLEEPING PORCH
Hearkening back to days-gone- by, these homeowners elevated the luxury of outdoor living by bringing back the sleeping porch. With its overhead ceiling and halfwalls nothing could be more inviting than this fully furnished, private sanctuary, located on the second floor of an Island heritage home. Filled to the brim with loads of colour, texture, flowers and artwork, this is the place dreams are made of. ( Photo by The Black House)
▲ SHELTERING OUTSIDE
With uninterrupted views to the yard and the gardens beyond, this sunroom offers an extension of outdoor living space. Surrounded by screened in windows and doors, it protects the homeowners from unwanted pesky mosquitoes and flies, along with wind, rain and direct sunshine. Filled with cheerful colours and all-weather furnishings, it is a perfect spot for an afternoon nap, a game of cards or an evening spent listening to the sounds of nature.
► GREEN LIVING
This is every gardener’s dream room, your very own greenhouse. Under the glassed-in roof and walls, this slice of heaven and relaxation is one corner of a busy working greenhouse. On one side of the greenhouse (not shown) is everything needed to start and your own garden, the pots, bags of soil, and garden tools. With loads of extra space in the building, the homeowners decided to make it the ultimate greenhouse by adding a comfy lounge chair and a bistro table and chair set. When window coverings on the roof are open, it makes the perfect spot for stargazing or a moonlit meal.
Thank you to the homeowners who invited us to share their beautifil spaces.
