The recessed wall creates a perfect focal point for the room and for the bed, as well as it adds a bit more floor space in the room. A set of doors on one wall wall lead to a private terrace, while a cozy fireplace is found on the wall opposite of the bed – the perfect way to cozy-up the room on a chilly night.


Back patio
Spending time on this back patio would be quaint and inviting. Not too big, and not too small, the large tiles add a natural appeal to the space, and the color-combo of grays and deep wine hues really tie in to the natural brick on the home. A quaint sitting area is situated in the middle of the patio and makes for the perfect spot for taking in the views of natural landscape and mature foliage that outline the patio area. For visiting on chilly nights, adding a fire to the built-in fire place below the window, would quickly warm the patio and make for a charming, more inviting get together.
