Large Quirky Sunny Farmhouse Apartment

The apartment is spacious, bright, and sunny. Full of charming and quirky old details like original windows, hardwood floors, and not many right angles. Definitely not a vanilla box. The furnishings are clean and comfortable and go with the farmhouse feel. Please note that the private staircase used to access the apartment is original to the house. It is steep by contemporary standards and the tread depths are all a little wonky.

A spacious bed is centered against a natural wood headboard, adorned with decorative pillows of various patterns. Warm lighting is provided by two wall-mounted lamps on either side, enhancing the calming atmosphere of the room.
