Good design is all about the details and this quintessential New England home offers the perfect balance of relaxed and refined. As the author/illustrator of “Create The Space You Deserve” Jill Butler’s book details her creative journey & inspirational renovation of this charming cottage in the heart of Essex Village.

Four steps up & you are in the well-appointed kitchen with bistro lighting, reminiscent of Paris, creating a natural & familiar feeling for this cozy gathering place. From Sunday brunches to casual lunches to holiday gatherings the dining room is ideal for entertaining and the living room, centered around the fireplace, opens to the “getaway porch”…a quiet place to rest, relax & enjoy the day. The primary bedroom, guest room & two full baths complete the main level while upstairs you will find the “guest nest”…brimming with charm & character. The lower level offers endless possibilities and a true highlight of the property is the separate design studio with French doors leading to a stone terrace overlooking park-like grounds, a charming camp-fire circle & a variety of whimsical garden creations; an attached storage shed accommodates all of your gardening needs.
