Friday Fun: Houses with a Quirky Touch
It’s all very well to buy traditional cottages or restore abandoned mansions, but what about these mainly newly-built houses with an extra touch of quirkiness?
If I owned that swimming pool I’d never leave home – gorgeous!
I assume you mean the tropical covered one? Although the last one isn’t too bad either…
I did, but you’re right, either will do…
Grimm or Lake George. So you have any info about Lake George’s water quality? It might do for my swimming requirements
I’m not even sure where it is… but it does look enticing!
Any of these cottages would be an inspiration or distraction to my reading; more the latter I’d say.
Ah, but after a while you would just take it for granted, perhaps even become bored.
Ooooh, the blue terrace is lovely!
Oh, these are beautiful, Marina Sofia! And part of that appeal is definitely that they aren’t ‘typical.’ That hideaway cottage on Lake George is especially calling me…
Yes, I agree: harmonious square houses are all very well, but sometimes you just want something a little different.
It’s the blue terrace that calls me most. Love it!
Very romantic. And blue is my favourite colour…
that hammock looks inviting……
I actually gave away my hammock to a friend, because I could never quite get comfortable in it… But yes, it appeals aesthetically!
It would be the process of getting in and out again without falling flat on my face that would deter me from buying one
OMG that swimming pool in the second pic? Dream!
I dream of a tropical garden – at the rate global warming is going, I might get one soon.
So true…
I’d be a bit worried that the swimming pool in the second photo also has resident crocodiles – it looks to me like one of those pools in animal parks/zoos !! The German gothic, possibly converted church, is definitely calling me as a spooky, seasonal reading retreat.
Ha, I know what you mean! I hope it’s not situated in Florida, because I gather they often get lost alligators in their swimming pools.
Ooh, I love the German fairytale house! I also love the ‘barn’ but because it made me laugh… only in America… 😉
Everything is bigger and better over there – one might almost say ‘yuge’!
I don’t like the last one it looks too much like a Spa but the others are beyond lovely.
