It started way back when, having grown up in a converted stable/carriage house in Pennsylvania, this nostalgic style has always meant the warmth of a large stone fireplace, beamed ceilings, exposed interior stone walls, (and if you're lucky enough, a couple of old barn doors leading to an ancient workbench) . One of the major attractions of taking on such a challenging project is starting with a very traditional structure, never intended for human habitation, and creating a personalized interior space with few limitations. The toughest part of making the whole thing work is finding one that hasn't already been converted.    Filesize:  215.53 KB  Filename:  sm pict carriagebarn.jpg  Viewed:  110 Time(s)
