“Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths”
Psalms 25:4
As I was perusing my newest edition of Traditional Home, I was intrigued with a Victorian cottage painted coral to stand out among its neighboring Southern brick and white-framed mansions. When I see Victorian architecture, I immediately think dark-stained wood interiors with heavy ornamentation, but as you will see, the interiors are light and airy with period appropriate antiques mixed with modern pieces and contemporary artwork. It is a perfect juxtaposition! Grab a cup of coffee or a glass of iced tea and enjoy this Georgia home, sometimes referred to as the Barbie cottage!
Built in 1854, this coral-pink with green shutters cottage is not easy to miss on a historic avenue in Macon, GA. The Victorian exterior features were probably added later.
The living room with its classical design boasts a 17th century Belgium tapestry and an Empire gilt console.
