OP here. Like the house in Step Mom would Julia Roberts. Or the house in Unfaithful with Diane Lane and Richard Gere.

So I’m thinking - big old, colonial in New England, hardwood floors, lots of natural light, patterned rugs, built in bookcases, big fireplace, cozy throw blankets, natural woodwork, jewel tones, antiques, interesting or quirky decor items picked up on travels around the world, oil paintings on the walls, white kitchen but not sterile white, copper cookware hanging up in the kitchen.

It’s sort of country-ish but not modern farmhouse. Sort of English cottage but without all the chintz and ginger jars.

Do you know how to describe this in a search?


A Nancy Myers movie house?

Yes exactly but what else is it called? There’s probably a term that decorators use right?


Traditional?
