Hearing the Waves

If you read my blog for a while now, you know that I live in Canada and I’ve been feeling pretty cold with all the snow we’re getting lately. Just so you have an idea, we live about one block from the bay that’s basically frozen at this time of the year, so yes, we do have gorgeous beaches like this one in these pictures, but only for about 4 months of the year. Right now all I can think of is the sun… Are you still there, Mr. Sun?

If you’re also missing some sunshine, this post is for you. Come discover this dreamy house on the beach… somewhere where the sun is still shinning.

A Cottage Feel

Oh, I so wish I could be there! This place is beautiful in every direction.

Watching The Waves

This is what I love about this beach house, not only are the views amazing but also the decor.

Siesta

The perfect spot for a nap after a day at the beach. I love all the pillows around it.

Vintage Charm

Not the usual white kitchen we’ve been seeing often, this one has so much charm and that vintage stove is to die for! Put your aprons on!

All Aboard

Not just the kids would love to be in this room I would it too! How cool is it?

Mastering The Sea

Look up! Do you see how beautiful this ceiling is? The chandelier is also great and so is the rest of the room.

Gate

Very charming, nothing too fancy, just perfect! This gate to the beach is just so sweet!

Breeze

Imagine sitting here and just listening to the waves and seagulls.

Dining By The Ocean

A spot to love… your food and (hopefully) the company. :-)

Life

Sometimes all we need is a moment to take it easy and relax to remember how life can be good!

Anybody needing that moment right now? :-)

Walk

This image is really profound…  analyze the footprints. What does it tell to you? Yes, maybe it was a busy day on the beach, but for me it says that we’re all connected somehow and we all can leave our footprints in this world. We all have the chance…

    i’ve never met a beachhouse i didn’t like!

    that dreamy napping spot takes the cake and reminds me of the only request my son has made for his new bedroom: “i just want it to be ALL BED–it doesn’t need anything else–just soft bed everywhere.”

    have a great weekend leaving footprints, L.

    Luciane, que casa linda, menina! Decoração prá lá de costeira, do jeitinho que eu gosto, adorei.
    Aqui em Santa Catarina, perto da praia de Bombas, tem uma praia linda chamada Canto Grande e lembra demais esta praia das fotos acima, super calma, sem ondas, um paraíso. Meu sonho de consumo é uma casa nesta praia, quem sabe, aí busco inspiração nos seus posts.

  6. Many original details and features – love it! So casual, yet elegant at the same time. Have 2 inches of snow outside my window right now, so yes, I wish I was there also! Very charming home, and only a few steps to the beach!

  7. Renee said,

    Gorgeous! I’m guessing that is possibly Laguna Beach since you can see Catalina Island across the ocean, How I miss it!

  8. Rachel said,

    We were just starting to plan our summer beach trip today! Crazy, I know, but the rental homes fill up quick! Anyway, this post made me so excited to get ours booked!

  9. Hello Rene!

    It’s nice to meet you! This beach house is in Carpinteira, CA. Isn’t gorgeous? :-)

    Have a great weekend!

    Wow, what a place. It sure does remind me of certain areas on the US east coast, Hilton Head Island, some places in Florida. I love the color, and the fact that this place reflects a simplicity of life. Not sure I would want to be there when a raging storm comes through though. One thing I miss about ocean side living is the sound of the waves lapping the shoreline as I fall to sleep. Thanks for sharing this one!

    Now that is my kind of home. What a lovely place to wake up in every morning. We may be in Florida for the winter but not near any water to wake up to. Just Lovely.

  16. Greet said,

    Happy to have found you:-)

  19. Fabulous beach house! It looks comfortable and collected (as opposed to decorated). I am getting ready to do a post on where I live (about two or three hours south of Santa Barbara).
    Thanks, Luciane.

  20. Oh, Mary Ann… you’re a lucky girl! I’d love to be in California!

  21. Hi lovely,

    I grew up in Brighton on the South Caost of England so we were right by the sea. These images look so gorgeous but I can’t help thinking of all the times it’s rainy and cold and then it might not feel so glam.

    Or is that just me feeling jealous of those amaing sea views?!!

  22. Perfect beach house! My best friend used to live in “Carp” I love it there. I’m off to the shelter to hang out w/the critters now. Have a gorgeous Sunday Luciane.

    Lucianne – I’m in the same boat, so to speak. I too, live in Canada in a resort community surrounded by water. Fantastic for half the year – freezing and tear-your-hair-out confining for the other half. Must not complain though – at least I have shelter and a bed – more than can be said for many. Where in Canada do you live? I’m a couple of hours east of Toronto. Debra

  24. Hi Debra,

    Winters in Canada can be harsh, eh? Unless you’re in Vancouver! I used to live there and I thought I knew winter… nope.. I didn’t! Now that I live in the Maritimes I know what winter is! :-) Maybe I need go back to BC! :-)

    Btw, I love Ontario. So beautiful!

  25. Beautiful ending to a beautiful post. This is what dreams are made of…..

  26. Tee said,

    Hi there. I am visiting Vancouver but don’t know which area I should stay near. I love the pictures displayed here of the house by the beach. Could you please tell me which area for me to visit to find beautiful homes like that to walk pass as I walk around the beach?
