A weekender




From school house to country living this home purchased in a neglected state for US $30,000 was renovated with a playful spirit and turned into a weekend retreat by owners Jason Nixon and John Loecke. I love the fun colours and the quirkiness, the plates on the wall even the chandelier of this gorgeous looking home.

So cute. It is like a Playhouse for grown ups. What a super place to escape to for a weekend. So many lovely details too.

For years I dreamt of renovating a little school house. But finally realized that it would be way too small- but I do love them. And this one is a dream.
Thank you for visiting and your comment.
