Recently, I had the pleasure of touring a beautiful and idyllic rural home. The home is the retirement dream of a couple who uprooted themselves from another lovely home near a very large, southern US city. The couple retired from an active life and career – moving to ‘the old home place’. On their portion of inherited land, they built an iconic country home with modern amenities.
The designer of the home is Richard Tubb of Birmingham, AL. The couple asked Richard to design an interior that reflects the setting of the home, which is several acres of pastureland and woodland that has been in the family for years. The setting is breathtaking…
So, with as few words as possible, here are some of the most stunning scenes in this beautifully appointed country home:
A Country Housewarming
Gorgeous magnolia arrangement, by Richard Tubb, on the breakfast table…
The stone fireplace in the family room…
The dining table and staircase reflected in an oversized mirror. Notice the simple, but effective, summer tablescape…
Three of the four chairs making up a grouping in the sitting room…
One of the guest bedrooms. The bed linens are fabulous…
A small balcony between two bedrooms. These chairs face the large window over the entry…
One of the bedrooms. The magic of mirrors…
The master bedroom. Perfection…
The sun porch off the master bedroom has a pastoral view on three sides…
The master bathroom. Perfection again! It’s my favorite shot of the whole house…
Thank you for coming along on the tour of this lovely home! You can visit Richard anytime at Richard Tubb Interiors, Pepper Place, Birmingham, AL.
See you next time!
