When their clients purchased the property, the original farmhouse was in shambles. The owners envisioned a more modern, but classic styled foursquare farmhouse.</span> </p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhu3rxbyI/AAAAAAAAGys/19K6NrW5Jx4/s1600-h/large_dcshne_3%20%282%29%5B11%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_3 (2)" border="0" height="474" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhvCYNoAI/AAAAAAAAGyw/EunlsXemP5s/large_dcshne_3%20%282%29_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_3 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">They wanted an expansive porch to wrap around the home to enjoy lovely views of the beautiful property.</span></p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhvcZyxSI/AAAAAAAAGy0/iQ_Oxty2ITU/s1600-h/large_dcshne_4%20%282%29%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_4 (2)" border="0" height="474" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhvgMh7ZI/AAAAAAAAGy4/mIdcZtJi3QY/large_dcshne_4%20%282%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_4 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;">Inside I fell in love with the old fashion styled farmhouse kitchen. Notice the large windows with mullions only on the top half. Also notice the huge wood center island. A bridge faucet and open shelving really helps capture the farmhouse style.</span><br /></p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhv5-8-0I/AAAAAAAAGy8/LDOtAy-FWz4/s1600-h/large_dcshne_6%20%282%29%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_6 (2)" border="0" height="674" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhwTu8meI/AAAAAAAAGzA/xuGn1d5STJg/large_dcshne_6%20%282%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_6 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">From this angle you can see the apron front sink. Another detail which really adds to the farmhouse feel are the exposed hinges on the inset cabinet doors, as well as the latches and bin pull hardware.</span></p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhwowmFGI/AAAAAAAAGzE/WVqO1NcaQ0s/s1600-h/large_dcshne_7%20%282%29%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_7 (2)" border="0" height="674" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhw4rHfCI/AAAAAAAAGzI/Ap27sJFuW7c/large_dcshne_7%20%282%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_7 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;">I adore this adjacent butler's pantry.

The slipper tub is sculptural and beautiful. The tile and high dressers also add a feeling of age and history.</span></p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhyByWFwI/AAAAAAAAGzU/_x55GV7Fc7k/s1600-h/large_dcshne_2%20%282%29%5B19%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_2 (2)" border="0" height="474" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhykkvACI/AAAAAAAAGzY/6y7T4S2GrUc/large_dcshne_2%20%282%29_thumb%5B6%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_2 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;">Another favorite is the clapboard clad sunroom, outfitted with gas grill and hood. A great space for entertaining. Notice how the brick walls are complimented by the bright color palette. The colors really update and modernize the farmhouse feel.</span><br /></p><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhyxRlLVI/AAAAAAAAGzc/mJgfWQyY9n8/s1600-h/large_dcshne_3%20%282%29%5B15%5D.jpg"><img alt="large_dcshne_3 (2)" border="0" height="474" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_tSGOcFKOoqI/TcFhzIPHlZI/AAAAAAAAGzg/nEjv7h0Zbsg/large_dcshne_3%20%282%29_thumb%5B7%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="BACKGROUND-IMAGE: none; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px" title="large_dcshne_3 (2)" width="554" /></a></p><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center"><span style="font-size:130%;">The deep porch with beadboard ceiling creates a marvelous space for enjoying the vista.

HOME DECOR: WHITE KITCHENS

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">WHY I LOVE COUNTRY KITCHENS</span></div><br /><br />Country has changed a lot since the 80's.  Today's country is clean lined, crisp, neutral and beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.  If the word 'country' still conjures up visions of heavy oak furniture and cluttered counters, let me show you what today's country looks like.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigzr3VYFnaUiXdqGOD4VNlfwIIOzg5pll__fP-K1oh8HGq_zLYN0WWQcVWjMDzDy2WTBBtfT3Gl69j67UOjH6La1hO-U5dZhX0B-btt1Xvyt-hKcTM5Pfa8kvkUHG0Kc9aP6tuQbNLkTHT/s1600-h/70b3b586-0a12-4fea-b1ec-e574373324c9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;">I admit, I like a white kitchen.  This country kitchen features simple doors, a country farmhouse sink, hardwood floors, honed granite countertops, bin pulls and glass front cabinets.  The coffered ceiling as an architectural element gives a feeling of elegance and age - like an old country farmhouse - but truly this is a very efficient kitchen.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;">Butcher block topped island with big chunky country legs, a stone floor, simple lighting and the almost industrial look of the stainless appliances </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;">Country kitchens should have a little of the rustic thrown in - like the weathered beams on the ceilings and  the washed brick backsplash.  The polished granite contertops provide a nice contrast to the weathered finishes - and I love the lantern styled lighting</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBIDkBR4rBRUYPbqEwEVCq9SDtIe1mBxckS8bIyYyTs_T8lZXUTXtgpDFj8UZjfBHLcNSpDr_Lbp47nDYs3yUBpLtpIm8XZ0zwfF2tbf3F47G68FHbMahoI3scz040sY6nte3zMcEAIOur/s1600-h/chinois.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;">An in-kitchen eating area and slipcovered upholstered chairs and checkered flooring are wonderful country elements.  I love the addition of the industrial style lighting and the stainless range with the steel backsplash.  It's all about the contrasts. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiec5u-KaAJaPPw7AoBdoguY4wLH2Zdlurw2q3ocw4fSxWFbsKkMLkisj1jUd3wyOU29uuzUJpat23O4oeui74laShdtvEzhEUsqotkLQOElBI2OZibVAjqj9CcVzMs5TvofpUA56BFqf1q/s1600-h/slipcovers.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;">Today's country is all about the feel of vintage without the inconvenience.  Vintage style subway tile creates a country backsplash in a slightly modern way.  An antique country table in this kitchen works double duty as a work space or an in-kitchen eating area.  Architectural vintage style range hood and simple cleaned line cabinets - it looks fresh, clean and uncomplicated.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxMjJNj9-wr7tY392pIEvyiD9dK8UOzX7QA5pX1yZMdyj2r8n9Xf442bs5MOOtOWKdEdXuW32Dtory7vIJd6P8eA1l2ftOC2_H72FxItM0WSkA1_E74Kw9L_4UvC-2F5YI7KRIURFQ3rwP/s1600-h/ikea+butcher+block.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love the alcove above the range.  It creates a great architectural focal point and brings in that country vintage feel, as do the butcher block counters, beadboard and warm wood flooring.  The island features a curved seating edge - perfect for friendly conversation.     </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
