Bohemian Bungalow Part Two

Bohemian Bungalow Part Two. This is the charming gray bungalow that sits next to the lovely yellow bungalow I wrote about in my last post. Kristin and Dan Alber have spent a great deal of time and effort to restore this beauty to its former glory.

The interiors have a continuing color palette of neutrals punctuated by a bright spring green. It is as if the legendary Dorothy Draper and Kelly Wearstler have joined forces.
I love how the address of the home shows up as art near the front door.

Here’s a closeup of the fabulous salvaged doors. I have to ask Kristin if they built the wall around the doors or vice versa.

There were several other rooms in the home that were not staged, but still altogether lovely, with their pale walls and dark wood floors.Β You would be very blessed indeed to have the Alber’s for neighbors.

    I love the subway tiles in the kitchen and the door going into the kitchen. A kitchen is always my favorite room in a home since I like to play with flour:)

    Laura, thank you so much for taking the time to share these wonderful pictures with all of us! This home is so lovely.

    Any update on Lil’ Mamma? I found a nest on my porch last night built between the column and the drainpipe with 4 babies in it and I will be posting about it tomorrow. The little baby robins are adorable.

    Wow that’s an amazing home! Everything is just perfect and the home you showed in the last post is wonderful too!
    Bungalows are one of my very favourite types of house – we have several around here in Australia but they cost the earh because everyone wants them!
